in reply to Converting Hashes to Objects

I like the idea, but dislike the name. H2O is water and nothing else :-)
Maybe Ohash or Shash (smart hash)?

Should have keys, values and each, too.

EDIT: At a second thought, this would prevent "keys", "values" and "each" as keys :-(
Not so good.

    I like the name, at the moment I don't think I'll change it ;-)

    The objects are still hashrefs, you can still do keys %$hash etc.

      Maybe something for the perldoc: keys must be valid Perl identifiers if accessed via this module.

        Good point, thanks, done.

        Other methods can still be called with trickery, but of course that's not really the point of this module :-)

        use Util::H2O; my $o = h2o { '$%@.?' => 123 }; my $meth = '$%@.?'; print $o->$meth; # prints 123

    Yes, but if you're just taking a hash and autogenerating accessors for the hash elements, I'd say that's a pretty watered-down object.
