princepawn, read the responses to your post and they'll answer your question. You can do the same thing with a hash and data dumper will return {}, which really explains what you generally need to know for that hash.
Second, I am really struggling to figure out what is going on here. This is at least the fourth post where you have basically said "Perl or some module doesn't do what it's supposed to do." In all of these cases, you were wrong. Rather than accusing Perl (or modules) of not performing to spec, you should ask why things are not performing the way you expect them to perform. Here are some examples where you made a claim that was wrong:
Now to be fair, I have enjoyed some of your posts and I credit you with sparking my interest in Quantum::Superpositions. It's a fascinating module and I'm glad you raised my general awareness of it. But please, don't jump the gun and start saying "things don't work." Ask questions first! (I'll also give you credit for the bug in the Quantum::Superpositions documentation, but it's still nice to ask than accuse). I can't tell you how many times I simply assumed that Perl was doing something wrong, and in all of my time programming in it, I have only found one legitimate bug. However, you'll note that I didn't just come out of my corner swinging, I asked what was going on.
