> Also, related to LanX's comment, How does method dispatch interact with AUTOLOAD?
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dump qw/pp dd/;
Class->new("method");
Class::new("function");
# sub UNIVERSAL::new {
# warn "UNIVERSAL", pp \@_;
# }
package Class;
use Data::Dump qw/pp dd/;
sub AUTOLOAD {
warn "AUTOLOAD", pp \@_;
}
AUTOLOAD["Class", "method"] at d:/Users/lanx/AppData/Roaming/exp/new_a
+utoload.pl line 23.
AUTOLOAD["function"] at d:/Users/lanx/AppData/Roaming/exp/new_autoload
+.pl line 23.
with UNIVERSAL::new() uncommented:
UNIVERSAL["Class", "method"] at d:/Users/lanx/AppData/Roaming/exp/new_
+autoload.pl line 14.
AUTOLOAD["function"] at d:/Users/lanx/AppData/Roaming/exp/new_autoload
+.pl line 23.
So a class which counts on catching ->new in AUTOLOAD would be sabotaged.
A normal function call wouldn't be effected by UNIVERSAL.
