-meth
Any code references present in the hash will become methods.
This makes it sound like you can add methods after creating the hash. (Or, if keys are locked, that you can turn an existing key into a method), but from reading the code it looks like only subref present at creation are called directly.
My original question was about whether the -meth option made it impossible to have a subref as a value, the answer would be it's impossible to have both methods and subref values at creation. Maybe the methods should be removed from the hashs' keys though, otherwise if you iterate over the hash with each it would be impossible to tell methods and subref values appart. Also if you have a method $hash->meth(), this mean you'd be able to set $hash->{meth} (to either a plain value or a subref) without any impact on the method call.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
