Output is: attr age has value '30' Note that your line has $.age = rw was invalid syntax, and your a method was *outside* your original foo class. — Hope this helps, Bruce Gray (Util of PerlMonks)

This syntax works in a method as you said: self.$elem() Again I was getting errors that masked the correctness of that syntax--incomplete debugging! Thanks all. Cheers! -Tom Fair enough--my fingers fumbled a few important things. I'll correct and recheck; Thanks, Moritz (and Bruce). Cheers! -Tom
How to get indirect access to a class attribute?
Given a class like: our %attrs = (age=1,wgt=2); class foo { has $.age = rw;} method a { for %attrs.kv - $k, $v { my $aval = self.$k(); # supposed to work for a method name say attr { $k } has value '{ $aval }'; } } Question: 1. How can I indirectly refer to the attributes in a method? The above doesn't work (with or without the '()'). 2. Do I have to write a custom accessor to do so? Thanks. Best regards, -Tom
Re: Re-installation of Perl 6 (Rakudo Star) via rakudobrew on Linux
Although it usually works I've seen some oddities (maybe as minor as one test spec test failure) recently with rakudobrew where it doesn't cleanly rebuild (i assume there are traces of a previous build confusing it). The easiest thing is to delete everything and start again.

Hi, On 25.03.2015 13:44, Tom Browder wrote: Given a class like: our %attrs = (age=1,wgt=2); class foo { has $.age = rw;} should be 'has $.age is rw'. The is indicates a trait (not an assignment). method a { for %attrs.kv - $k, $v { my $aval = self.$k(); # supposed to work for a method name Etiher method a needs to be inside class foo, or it needs to be a subroutine, and refer to foo instead of self here.
