I don't think we should force all future implementations to add BUILDALL. Especially since Rakudo didn't need this added to work correctly. > On 2017-10-13 04:50:32, elizabeth wrote: > > > On 13 Oct 2017, at 07:52, Aleks-Daniel Jakimenko-Aleksejev (via RT) > > > <perl6-bugs-follo...@perl.org> wrote: > > > > > > # New Ticket Created by Aleks-Daniel Jakimenko-Aleksejev > > > # Please include the string: [perl #132283] > > > # in the subject line of all future correspondence about this > > > issue. > > > # <URL: https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=132283 > > > > > > > > > > Code: > > > class Foo { has $.bar }; my $f = Foo.new(bar=>'u'); say > > > $f.^methods; > > > > > > ¦«2015.12»: > > > (bar) > > > > > > ¦«2016.06»: > > > (bar) > > > > > > ¦«2016.12»: > > > (bar) > > > > > > ¦«2017.06»: > > > (bar) > > > > > > ¦«f72be0f130cf»: > > > (bar BUILDALL) > > > > > > > > > > > > Bisectable points at two relevant commits: > > > First it was BUILDALL_UNDER_CONSTRUCTION after > > > > https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/commit/9837687d93c907ec232b1c7635776aa0c7faa6bc > > > Now it is BUILDALL after > > > > https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/commit/63cf246fd4caa43c52a212054a98e9b450c54127 > > > > > > > > > I don't know if BUILDALL should be listed or not.

I think BUILDALL is different than bar for several reasons, it is all uppercase (which usually means it is special) it is only an optimization the programmer didn't use a pragma to add it the programmer didn't even implicitly declare it (I mean that ｢has $.bar｣ as an implicit declaration of a method of the same name) So I think discussing whether this use of BUILDALL needs to be hidden can be discussed independently of whether an atribute method needs to be hidden.
