note adrianh <p>Looks like I lied slightly - I've just found what I think is a [http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=1911|bug in Attribute::Handlers] that can cause Class::InsideOut to fail if you have multiple inheritence and custom DESTROY methods in the subclasses.</p> <p><em>&lt;sigh&gt;</em></p> <p>NOTE: this has nothing to do with a problem in Abigail's technique - just the use of Attribute::Handlers to implement the field declaration. 220776 222112
