Re^2: MooseX::Declare and overload

Awesomer! Thanks Haarg++

This worked, but only when I declared to_string as a sub instead of a method, but I can live with that. And extra thanks for pointing out the bug in namespace::autoclean. That explained the problem clearly.

There is still a lot of black magic in MooseX::Declare interfering, but if you use `use overload '""' => 'to_string';` instead of referencing it symbolically, it should work if to_string is defined as either a sub or a method. It will also allow subclasses to override the stringification behavior.	[reply] [d/l]

You hit the nail on the head. `class InDeclareString is dirty { use overload '""' => 'to_string'; has val => (is => 'rw'); method to_string { sprintf "(%s)", $self->val } };` [download] works perfectly. Many thanks	[reply] [d/l]
