in reply to How to properly go through a WWW::Mechanize::Link object?

What Corion said. The @links are WWW::Mechanize::Link objects already–

use WWW::Mechanize;
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new( autocheck => 0 );

$mech->get("https://perlmonks.org/?node=Recently+Active+Threads");

for my $link ( $mech->links )
{
    printf "* %s\n  -> %s\n", $link->text, $link->url_abs;
}

    First off, thank you. But this opens something that I've missed in Perl.

    What I was doing was:

    print "name\t\t$link->name\n";

    Which gave me:

    name WWW::Mechanize::Link=ARRAY(0x55bbd8e7d100)->name

    So what am I not understanding? Why does Perl not interpret this?
