Very cool. I played around trying to do the same but avoiding the need
for all the CALLs (as you worked out, these are normally needed because
'add_item' and it's friends return values which otherwise would crud up
your output)
This got really confusing really quick because an rss object has both
a "image" method and hashkey which you need to both access, and the
method is created by an AUTOLOAD. I was trying to return an
Template::Plugin::XML::RSS object that delegated to a XML::RSS and then
returned '' where needed to avoid outputting crud, but I couldn't get all
the tests to pass.
The problem is I'm not sure what order TT checks for an object's methods /
AUTOLOAD / hash and I was confusing myself. For the record, what order
should this be in?
Later.
Mark.
