Subject: Seeming problem with using PreCallback attributed routines
When I run the script using the procedural interface for specifying pre- and post- callbacks, I get the following. mdorman@amanda:~$ ./proc.pl start: --- #YAML:1.0 turnip: truck process: --- #YAML:1.0 id: josh turnip: truck session_destroy: --- #YAML:1.0 id: josh turnip: truck This is pretty much as expected. When I run the script using the OO callbacks, I get the following: mdorman@amanda:~$ ./oocb.pl Can't use string ("0") as an ARRAY ref while "strict refs" in use at /usr/share/perl5/Params/CallbackRequest.pm line 273. This is at the point where pre- and post- callbacks are being dropped onto the stack. I am using the standard Debian installation of Perl, which reports: Summary of my perl5 (revision 5.0 version 8 subversion 2) configuration: Platform: osname=linux, osvers=2.4.22-xfs+ti1211, archname=i386-linux-thread-multi uname='linux kosh 2.4.22-xfs+ti1211 #1 sat oct 25 10:11:37 est 2003 i686 gnulinux ' config_args='-Dusethreads -Duselargefiles -Dccflags=-DDEBIAN -Dcccdlflags=-fPIC -Darchname=i386-linux -Dprefix=/usr -Dprivlib=/usr/share/perl/5.8.2 -Darchlib=/usr/lib/perl/5.8.2 -Dvendorprefix=/usr -Dvendorlib=/usr/share/perl5 -Dvendorarch=/usr/lib/perl5 -Dsiteprefix=/usr/local -Dsitelib=/usr/local/share/perl/5.8.2 -Dsitearch=/usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.2 -Dman1dir=/usr/share/man/man1 -Dman3dir=/usr/share/man/man3 -Dsiteman1dir=/usr/local/man/man1 -Dsiteman3dir=/usr/local/man/man3 -Dman1ext=1 -Dman3ext=3perl -Dpager=/usr/bin/sensible-pager -Uafs -Ud_csh -Uusesfio -Uusenm -Duseshrplib -Dlibperl=libperl.so.5.8.2 -Dd_dosuid -des' hint=recommended, useposix=true, d_sigaction=define usethreads=define use5005threads=undef useithreads=define usemultiplicity=define useperlio=define d_sfio=undef uselargefiles=define usesocks=undef use64bitint=undef use64bitall=undef uselongdouble=undef usemymalloc=n, bincompat5005=undef Compiler: cc='cc', ccflags ='-D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -DTHREADS_HAVE_PIDS -DDEBIAN -fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/local/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64', optimize='-O3', cppflags='-D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -DTHREADS_HAVE_PIDS -DDEBIAN -fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/local/include' ccversion='', gccversion='3.3.2 (Debian)', gccosandvers='' intsize=4, longsize=4, ptrsize=4, doublesize=8, byteorder=1234 d_longlong=define, longlongsize=8, d_longdbl=define, longdblsize=12 ivtype='long', ivsize=4, nvtype='double', nvsize=8, Off_t='off_t', lseeksize=8 alignbytes=4, prototype=define Linker and Libraries: ld='cc', ldflags =' -L/usr/local/lib' libpth=/usr/local/lib /lib /usr/lib libs=-lgdbm -lgdbm_compat -ldb -ldl -lm -lpthread -lc -lcrypt perllibs=-ldl -lm -lpthread -lc -lcrypt libc=/lib/libc-2.3.2.so, so=so, useshrplib=true, libperl=libperl.so.5.8.2 gnulibc_version='2.3.2' Dynamic Linking: dlsrc=dl_dlopen.xs, dlext=so, d_dlsymun=undef, ccdlflags='-rdynamic' cccdlflags='-fPIC', lddlflags='-shared -L/usr/local/lib' Characteristics of this binary (from libperl): Compile-time options: MULTIPLICITY USE_ITHREADS USE_LARGE_FILES PERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT Built under linux Compiled at Nov 15 2003 17:52:08 @INC: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.2 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.2 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8.2 /usr/share/perl/5.8.2 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .

This is not actually a bug with Params::CallbackRequest. With OO callbacks, you _must_ load Params::CallbackRequest only after all Params::Callback subclasses have been loaded. Because you're loading it before you actually define the callback methods (because C<use> loads it before the rest of the script, in which the callback methods are defined, loads), you get an error. The solution is to load Params::CallbackRequest only after all of the Params::Callback subclasses have been loaded. The easiest way to do that in your sample script is to C<require> Params::CallbackRequest instead of C<use>ing it.
