Hello fellow Monks,

I am getting the error ...

Operation `bool': no method found, argument in overloaded package Vector2D at

... and here's the pertinent code snippets ...

package Vector2D;
use strict;
use Exporter;
use vars qw($VERSION @ISA @EXPORT @EXPORT_OK %EXPORT_TAGS);
use overload
      "-"    => \&minus,
      "+"    => \&plus,
      "*"    => \&mult;

... here's the snippet from the script that uses Vector2D ...

sub drawPoly {
    my @p = @_; #Array of  Vector2Ds

    my $start_point = pop( @p );
    while( pop( @p ) ) {
        $can->create( 'line', 
            $start_point->getx(),
            $start_point->gety(),
            $_->getx(),
            $_->gety());
        $start_point = $_;
    }
    
}

The line number mentioned in the error message
coresponds to this line ...
    while( pop( @p ) ) {

... Oh! Wise Monks why has this pestilence befallen me!
