Re: I need sub returns help

[Tom Browder]

I don't think you can do what you want exactly. But I certainly may be
wrong!

Using a pair may do the trick, but my Pair foo outside a Hash is weak.

The other way around it is to do something like this I use often:

class MyPair {
    has Bool $.b;
    has Str $.s;
}

sub x(--> MyPair) {
    my Bool $b = True;
    my Str = "foo";
    my $obj = MyPair.new(:$b,:$s);
   $obj;
}

say x; # OUTPUT
