How can I rebless an object in Perl 6?
Another question might be "How do I inherit from builtin types?".
I have two questions really, but they are both from the same thing I'm playing with.
First, I can make a subset of a type when I want to constrain it further. I do that with MyInt
which accepts anything that is an Int
. I declare a variable to by MyInt
and assign to it, but when I check its name, I get Int
instead. So, what's up with that?
subset MyInt where * ~~ Int;
my MyInt $b = 137;
put 'Name: ', $b.^name; # Int, but why not MyInt?
But, what I really wanted was a class named MyInt
that does the same thing. I might want to add methods to
class MyInt is Int {} # empty subclass
my MyInt $b = 137;
put 'Name: ', $b.^name;
This almost looks like it works, but I get an error:
Type check failed in assignment to $b; expected MyInt but got Int (137)
I understand what it's saying, but don't understand why I didn't get the same error when I used subset
. That's question 1.5.
What I'd really like is the assignment of 137 to automatically turn itself into a MyInt
when I assign it. I know that I can explicitly construct it, but it's a bit annoying that the parent class still turns it into an Int
instead of using the type of the more derived type:
class MyInt is Int {} # empty subclass
my MyInt $b = MyInt.new: 137; # Still an Int
put 'Name: ', $b.^name;
I can override the new
(taken directly from Int.pm), but I'm at a loss about change the type:
class MyInt is Int {
method new ( $value --> MyInt ) {
my $v = callsame; # let superclass construct it
# But, how do I make it the more specific type?
}
}
my MyInt $b = MyInt.new: 137; # Still an Int
put 'Name: ', $b.^name;
I can bless
self, but that doesn't retain the value (and I didn't think it would and don't think it should. Looking at Int.pm, I can't see how it stores the value. It looks like it relies on a built-in type and might not be traditionally subclassable:
class MyInt is Int {
method new ( $value --> MyInt ) {
my $v = callsame; # let superclass construct it
put "v is $v";
# But, how do I make it the more specific type?
# $v.bless (doesn't change the type, fails return type check)
self.bless; # doesn't retain value
}
}
my MyInt $b = MyInt.new: 137; # Still an Int
put 'Name: ', $b.^name;
put 'Value: ', $b; # 0
There is a rebless, but that isn't part of the chain of things avialable to Int
or ClassHow
:
class MyInt is Int {
method new ( $value --> MyInt ) {
my $v = callsame; # let superclass construct it
put "v is $v";
put "self is " ~ self.^name;
put "HOW is " ~ self.HOW.^name;
# No such method 'rebless' for invocant
# $v.rebless: self.^name;
$v.HOW.rebless: self.^name;
}
}
my MyInt $b = MyInt.new: 137; # Still an Int
put 'Name: ', $b.^name;
put 'Value: ', $b; # 0
Here's a possible solution:
class MyInt is Int { };
my $x = 42;
Metamodel::Primitives.rebless: $x, MyInt;
dd $x;
Which produces:
MyInt $x = 42
There's probably a cleaner way of doing what you want, but I don't know what it is.
