Re^2: RFC: new.pm - a perl -e use/new shortener (constructor)

[Dallaylaen]

Good point, say, DBI->connect(...); behaves much like a constructor. However, this would clutter the interface, making it less funny. And many Very::Long::Modules are in fact parts of a big production system that standardizes constructors. Maybe there is a way though, need to think more...

[LanX]

As I already said, in the rare cases one can always fall back to explicit code.

Just making it clear in documentation that some modules fail should be enough.
