Hi Dave,

I'm trying to define a custom vmethod but not succeeding.
I tried using the way described in the manual and also by calling
define_vmethod. Both ways appear to have set up methods in the
Template::Stash::SCALAR_OPS hashref but neither of them appears to
work, even with a very simple body. Any clues to what I'm doing wrong
gratefully received!
In the perl:
use Template::Stash;
$Template::Stash::SCALAR_OPS->{uniprot_is_obsolete} =
sub {
return 42;
};
sub forty_two { return 42; }
Template::Stash->define_vmethod('scalar', 'forty_two', &forty_two);
warn join ' ', keys %$Template::Stash::SCALAR_OPS, "\n";
Those look fine - are you sure that [% representative %] is defined as a
scalar rather than a hashref/arrayref/object?
representative is an object. An object is a scalar. If I replace the
definition of x in your test by x => sub {123} the test still passes.
More to the point, representative.defined returns 1 and has the same
code (apart from the value of the numerical constant) as forty_two,
which doesn't return 42!
So I still have no idea what's going wrong.
Cheers, Dave
Attached example test script for the two methods works for me on
Template 2.26.
cheers,
Tom
