Also tried creating the filter reference in the top level class and then
sharing it via our for all the subclasses and still no message.

Subject: POE::Filter::Reference help
I can send messages between child processes and the parent process no
problem when i define the following sub in the class that is created
directly in the forked child.
But when the object is nested 2 or 3 classes into the forked process the
messages never get to the parent.
They fire fine but dont get received.
They don't show up when i trace out POE and aren't shown in the parent
log like the other messages.
I have to admit i dont fully understand how POE::Filter::Reference
achieves what it needs to. How are the end points between which messages
are sent determined?
Any clarification appreciated.

sub _ReportStatusToParent{
my ($self, @args) = @_;
my $filter = POE::Filter::Reference->new();
my %result = (
taskid => $self->{_id}->{section_name},
pid => $$,
status => $args[0],
);
# Generate some output via the filter. Note the strange use of list
# references.
my $output = $filter->put([\%result]);
print @$output;
}
