What's the simplest way to get the error- can you make a 1 or 2 line class
definition that should compile but doesn't?

Perl6 Community,
How do I properly wrap an attribute’s ^get_value method in TWEAK? If a
condition exists, I’d like to wrap all (:local) attributes so that they can do
some extra work.
The module that I’m working on has classes/attributes for hundreds of fields in
dozens of different, big XML
I’ve twisted myself into a pretzel. I couldn’t even find where a role gets
‘$’, but I saw it in JSTOWE’s code so I mimicked.
I need a little more broad-based help on what goes where and when.
Thanks,
Mark
