NAME

autobox::Bless - Call methods in unblessed hashes and hashrefs

SYNOPSIS

  package purple;

  sub new { 
      my $package = shift;
      bless { one => 1, two => 2, }, $package;
  }

  sub three {
      my $self = shift;
      $self->{one} + $self->{two};
  }

  #

  package main;

  use autobox::Bless;

  my $purple = purple->new;   # optionally comment this out

  my %foo = ( one => 5, two => 17 );
  print %foo->three, "\n";    # 22!
  print %foo->four, "\n";     # not found, but %foo is now blessed into purple (yes, really)

DESCRIPTION

Attempts to guess which package an unblessed hash or hashref should be blessed into and bless it into that package on the fly.

BUGS

When used with autobox::Core or similar modules that add API methods to primitive values, method names might clash.
