Nono, that isn't a Moose feature at all..

It's the use of Moose::Autobox which allows you to lexically call stuff...
So for example:

use Moose::Autobox;
my @list = 2->flatten;
my @other_list = [ 2 ]->flatten;
is_deeply \...@list, \...@other_list;

I'm just not seeing how Moose::Autobox can pass it's tests for you (which
involve ->flatten working), but fail when run for real..

The reason the the autobox pass is because they are not testing
'flatten' or 'to' or other 'methods' like that.

Erm, yes - autobox doesn't provide any methods itself.

As I said, I don't see how Moose::Autobox (which does provide those methods) works... This is why I was confused about why the Moose::Autobox tests didn't fail...

This drive me to the conclusion that somewere the  xxx::flaten mehtod
is not defined, so I am missing the module where this is defined,
probably in Moose::Autobox:: or autobox:: submodules

So someone knows where the Moose::Autobox::ARRAY::flatten lives (or
whatever is the namespace given to it)?

It's in Moose::Autobox - I recommend grep as a method of finding things..

Am I in the right path of reasoning or I have missed something? I am
new to all this 'perl6' magic like autobox implementation and 'modern
perl'.

Please stop making up random names for shit cause you don't understand it. You did it with 'Moose Arrays', and you're now doing it with 'perl6 magic'.

Otherwise I will be referring to everything as vroomfondle from now on.

BUT the thing that drive me crazy is that the 'make test' done
manually was ok with the SCALAR etc subs, but when I run calling only
the test it FAILED!!!!!

=======
p...@deskpro17122[~/.cpan/build/autobox-2.55-RKhwNV]226
$ perl t/flatten.t

Right, so it fails with your installed version...

Try perl -Ilib t/flatten.t and it'll work I guess

As you're theoretically running the latest versions, it'd be interesting to compare the autobox files on disk to those in the dist (as this test failing with your installed autobox version indicates that it's autobox which is the source of the problem).

Yes, I know this, but as you can see there was an '=' sign

Module  = Moose::Autobox::Indexed (RJBS/Moose-Autobox-0.09.tar.gz)

telling that I am up to date, so it was not necesary to go go to the :


Aha, yes - my bad.

Cheers
