Re: How to use object's reference in "object" context if being used in scalar context it does something wrong?

ref should still get you the object class. I don't know how to get a unique identifier, but perhaps anothermonk does.

As I've got to know, Scalar::Util can be a bit helpful with refaddr(). Not the best solution for me, though. :( V.Melnik	[reply]

Try the overloading pragma... `use strict; use warnings; use XML::LibXML 2; my $doc = XML::LibXML->load_xml(IO => \*DATA); my $bar = $doc->getElementsByTagName('bar')->get_node(1); print $bar, "\n"; { no overloading; print $bar, "\n"; } print $bar, "\n"; __DATA__ <foo><bar /></foo>` [download] toby döt ink	[reply] [d/l]
