Dear monks,

I'm trying to understand how attributes work. I still don't get it. Why does the following not work (and is it fixable)? 
package Attr;

sub new :Constructor { return bless {}, shift }

sub set_blah :Mutator {
    my ( $self, $blah ) = @_;
    $self->{blah} = $blah;
    return $self;
}

sub get_blah :Accessor {
    my $self = shift;
    return $self->{blah};
}

1;

package main;

my $obj = Attr->new;
$obj->set_blah('I just set something!');
print $obj->get_blah;

All I get is Invalid CODE attribute: Constructor at /Users/rvosa/Desktop/Attr.pl line 3. So is it possible to set (arbitrary) attributes on methods, and how is that done?

In reply to how to use attributes? by rvosa
