I have a method that uses AUTOLOAD to access class data. However when I use the second call below I get an error about strict refs. How do I modify my AUTOLOAD method to handle the second class method call? 
$package = $self->{_archive_tbl}->get_pkgname;

$package = WM::Install::Table::ArchiveTbl->get_pkgname();

Can't use string ("WM::Install::Table::ArchiveTbl") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at /u08/pkg/wms/wmcmtools/modules/WM/Install/Table/ArchiveTbl.pm line 192. 
sub AUTOLOAD {
    my ($self, $newval) = @_;
    
    $AUTOLOAD =~ /.*::get(_\w+)/
        and $self->_accessible($1)
        and return $self->{$1};
    
    $AUTOLOAD =~ /.*::_set(_\w+)/
        and $self->_accessible($1)
        and do { $self->{$1} = $newval; return; };
        
    # error 
    croak "No such method: $AUTOLOAD";
