Hello all,

I have a SOAP::Lite server that is calls a method runProgram from Class Tool. This method calls a method getSeq from Class ExSeq and also calls a method runTool from Class BioTools. Finally, the method runTool calls a method program from Class Test. This is where things break down. The method runTool creates an object to Class Test and then proceeds to call a method run, but there doesn't seem to be a reference in $thingy at all!

#server calls method runProgram from class Tool
dispatch_to(Tool::runProgram), etc...

#method runProgram calls getSeq and runTool from classes ExSeq and Bio
+Tools respectively
package Program;
use ExSeq;
use BioTools;
sub runProgram{
  shift;
  my $ids = shift;
  my $exSeqObj = ExSeq->new();
  my $file = $exSeqObj->getSeq($ids);

  my $bioToolsObj = BioTools->new();
  my $hashref = $bioToolsObj->runTool($file);
}

#method runTool calls run from Class Bio in Class Test
package Test;
use Bio;
sub runTool{
  shift;
  my $file = shift;
  my $testObj = Bio->new();
  my $thingy = $testObj->run($file);
}

I have tested a script that replicates the SOAP::Lite server's call to the runProgram method and everything seems to work just fine. PLEASE help!! I have been stuck on this for a couple of days now and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong in the OOP code... I've taken out the constructor methods for brevity.
Thanks so much.
