# I was wondering how perl6 would stringify (as in Data::Dumper):
As Dan said, that's serialization. I don't know if Perl will support
that built-in. But if it does...
# 1) objects with 'my' and 'our' variables
Those would have to be dumped from the pads or stashes. I don't think
there's any way around that.
# 2) $.property
Using their accessors?
# 2) subroutines (and coderefs)
See my comment below.
# 3) properties (both is/has)
'is' properties are part of the code, so I don't think they need
serialization. 'has' (or whatever it'll be called) properties can be
applied easily--remember, a 'has' returns its left operand.
# Right now, the fact that subroutines come out as 'sub {
# "DUMMY" }' is a minor pain to work around, having all of
# these as holes would be too much IMO.
That's fixed in 5.8--it uses B::Deparse to make a rough version of the
sub. Just hope it isn't a closure.
