Bug #19097 for Config-Std: Multi-part values and list context

Subject:	Multi-part values and list context

Hi Damian, As stated in the docs, if I ask for a config key that has a single value, I get a scalar back. If it has multiple values, I get an arrayref. Thats fine, but inconsistent. I'd like to be able to just do this and have it work for all cases: process_options(@{$config{silly}{stuff}}); Any chance of getting some overload magic to handle this? Cheers, Rob. -- Robert Norris GPG: 1024D/FC18E6C2 Email+Jabber: rob@cataclysm.cx Web: http://cataclysm.cx/

Hi, Boston.pm has adopted this module. A little Wanted list context magic would seem a reasonable request. I think I saw one other bug report that seems similar. Will have to consider impacts to prereqs and existing code, so no promises, but wanted to let you know you've been heard. bill
