Ahhh, excellent point ... One test which I think you should be performing however (and that with which I proved that my own code proposal did not work as intended) is the following which tests the out-of-scope destruction of your weakened reference - This is important because Class::Singleton would pass the test examples in your code, whereas only Class::WeakSingleton would pass this test.

{ my $g = wrapper->instance; $g->{'key'} = 'value'; } $h = wrapper->instance; die "Bad mojo!" if exists $h->{'key'};

 

perl -le 'print+unpack"N",pack"B32","00000000000000000000001001101101"'

    Exactly. For the moment I just took the easy route and stole the existing test.pl. Its written up using some odd form of not-Test.pm and its ugly to behold. Yuck.
