In this case some_var is just a scalar.
[%
SET some_var = "foo";
SET other ="bar";
some_var.vmethod; # "prints "foo bar"
%]
Having "some_var" be an object is the way to go, of course. But, I
already have a scalar and wanted to do something to it based on
another value in the stash.
Something wishful like:
$Template::Stash::SCALAR_OPS->{vmethod} = sub {
my ( $value, $context ) = @_
my $bar = $context->stash->get('bar')
return "$value $bar";
};
That's a bit ugly, though.
