Hi,
First of all, thanks a lot for everything you've all done so far and keep doing!
Now, I'm the author of the Serialize::Naive module (and, yeah, I guess I should
rename the Serialize-Naive distribution to use "::" and not "-"), and it has a
documented inability to serialize and deserialize classes with attributes
declared with the @. or %. twigils. Of course, this can be worked around by
"has Array[Str] $.foo", but still it feels somewhat incomplete to me :)
I've attached a sample file that demonstrates the several ways I've tried to do
that; I'm somewhat baffled by the "expected Str but got Array[Str]" error - it
looks like something tries to interpret the hash element's value as a sequence
containing a single array, while it should interpret it as, well, an array, and
get the values from it... I think.
A minimum viable problem in case you don't want to slog through all the
diagnostics and conditionals:
perl6 -e 'use v6; use strict; class Foo { has Str @.bar; }; my $f1 =
Foo.new(bar => <a b c>); say $f1.perl; my %data = bar => <a b c>; my $f2 =
Foo.new(|%data); say $f2.perl;'
Foo.new(bar => Array[Str].new("a", "b", "c"))
Type check failed in assignment to @!bar; expected Str but got List
in block <unit> at -e line 1
Both this one-liner and the attached file fail in the same way in 2015.12 and
in:
This is Rakudo version 2015.12-213-g770d109 built on MoarVM version
2015.12-29-g8079ca5
implementing Perl 6.c.
Thanks in advance for any advice or assistance, and keep up the great work!
