Why do you say that is not a method? The first line says iAs I mentioned, if you *do* have an object reference `self` in scope somehow and want to access a `has $elem` defined within it, you use the automatically generated accessor `self.elem`. (If it was declared private, that is `has $!elem`, then I don't think you can get to it within that function unless it was passed in as a parameter.) > > > -- > brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates > allber...@gmail.com ballb...@sinenomine.net > unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
