I'm not sure if I really hate or love this. I'm not quite convinced if
the use of it anyway.
Maybe I'm thinking sideways again, but I haven't thought of "open" as
being a method of any IO object, because usually "open" is the thing
that gets you an IO Object.
[See my other e-mail to Leon for my comments on this].
One important thing here, is that the roles are not intended to
represent attributes of the object. For instance, IO::Readable and
IO::Writeable are not going to be composed depending on the parameters
you send to "open", but if you're in a Linux system, it should probably
return an object that does IO::Linux26 (which does IO::POSIX[$SomeLevel]
does IO::BSD[$Somewhat], which should also compose IO::Readable and
IO::Writeable independent of the open mode).
So you can have a stream handle which does IO::Writeable, but will
throw an error on any attempt to write? Anyway, you've answered my question
in the other e-mail.
Thyanks,
