Re^6: perl inheritance

in other words, I'm getting the following error when I try to call $class->new(...)

Can't locate object method "new" via package "HASH" (perhaps you forgo
+t to load "HASH"?) at Table.pm line 34.

I thought that reftype would return the polymorphic type (i.e. the subclass). Sorry Chromatic, but I'm bit confused here..

Yes, reftype() returns the type of the variable. I think what was meant was blessed() which returns the name of the package that it is blessed into: `my $class = blessed $self;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
