oops :) new laptop ... sent before i was ready ...

GtkFlow::Source->new()
GtkFlow::Sink->new()

 ... gives errors like:

Can't locate object method "new" via package "GtkFlow::Source"
(perhaps you forgot to load "GtkFlow::Source"?)

Also I can't list class methods by any method I know ( eg tried many
on 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/910430/how-do-i-list-available-methods-on-a-given-object-or-package-in-perl
).

eg:

my @methods =   Class::Inspector->methods( 'Foo::Class', 'full', 'public' );

print Dumper( \@methods );

 ... prints an empty array.

Is this hidden by Glib::Introspection? Or is something else going wrong?

Also I didn't quite follow this:

"some of its functions — especially the ones that deal with collections
— will not be introspectable"

Collections? Not sure what you mean here. Anyway the python examples
seem to do basically all I'm interested in, so I'm hoping there is
just something simple I'm missing. Sorry - I don't understand the new
introspection stuff at all.
