Re: Two element array, shifted twice, is true?

 DB<13> x @_
0  undef

This shows that the array contains 1 element, and that element happens to be undefined. So @a in scalar context returns 1, which is true.

Presumably get_object() is being called with 3 arguments.

Yes, I had forgotten that since it is a class method, the class object is passed in as the first parameter. So the two explicit parameters are actually the second and third elements of @_. My third element was undef, which is a problem elsewhere in my code.	[reply]
