Indeed they have. I've got mine now. They're also shipping the mod_perl
pocket reference.

How did you get that info? I'll get on to the UK distributors and see why bookshops are getting such crap information. I would imagine that it'll be in bookshops in the next week or two.

Yeah, but don't you get such a good feeling of moral superiority when you don't buy from them. Dave...

Re: magic use
so, was there a better way to do this? * Greg McCarroll ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: Jo was talking on IRC today and made me think about packages. Imagine if you will the following situation ... you have Country.pm which implements the general functions with default implementation for each country you have special cases such as Country::France which say for example they do things differently so you want to do use Country::Germany and just use the default subs from Country.pm in a pretty much trivial class now you would have to implement these trivial 4 line packages for each trivial country. i wondered how you could do it better. i'm sure this is a feature that is in CPAN/Perl somewhere, but just in case it isn't please witness Muse.pm a 5 minute (and probably buggy) implementation of muse (magic use) that takes care of this problem. i'm sure its already in CPAN but i havent programmed for ages, so couldnt be bothered to think about it Greg p.s. i dont recommend ever using this code in production -- Greg McCarroll http://www.mccarroll.uklinux.net -- Greg McCarroll http://www.mccarroll.uklinux.net

Someone tell Andy, this doesn't seem to be working. Either that or you
lot felt the need to rehash it all again ;-)
Didn't anyone tell you guys that perl automatically rehashes stuff when it
gets too big to handle anyway...
