Greetings patient Monks,

I create a module which inherits from Furl. I want to enhance it with a few own variables. However, it does not work with Furl. Furl->new() returns something like Furl=REF(0x1bfd858) and its dump shows that its data is enclosed in an array(ref) like so: bless(do{\(my $o = bless({....

Usually, this works for me:

package XYZ;
use strict; use warnings;
our $VERSION = 1;
use parent 'LWP::UserAgent';
sub new {
 my $class = $_[0];
 my $self = $class->SUPER::new();
 bless($self, $class); # rebless to our own class
 # setting some own data in self:
 $self->{'debug'} = 1;
 $self->{'ABC'} = 42;
 return $self
}

LWP::UserAgent's new() returns LWP::UserAgent=HASH(0x5643905a0d68) (and its dump is like bless({...). That is a hashref where I add my own variables, as in the above code. Buf Furl's new() returns Furl=REF(0x1bfd858) which stubbornly refuses to be accessed.

How can I add my own data in my own module inheriting from Furl?

many thanks, bliako
