thanx for the patch which seems to work. did you add the code for this
warning or was it just crashing before this happened?
Event: package '' doesn't exist (creating) at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/sun4-solaris/Event/Watcher.pm line 73.
Event: callback method main->writeable doesn't exist at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/sun4-solaris/Event/Watcher.pm line 73.
i used your stack traces to find i was passing event.pm objects before
they were blessed (i blessed them too late). i found 3 or so cases like
this and fixed them. a better error message would be useful. perhaps
some caller info of the outside sub which called event.pm.
also theoretically a method doesn't have to exist at the watcher
creation time. it could be autoloaded or dynamically created after the
wather but before it can get activated. it is a good test though and
will more likely find my kind of bug than anything else. maybe it could
be disabled (lexical warnings?) so you could do something weird if
desired (i wouldn't do anything like dynamic callback methods!)
thanx,
uri
