in reply to Breaking Tie::Hash into three modules

Tie::StdHash

For the last 16 years, it seems that nobody complained about Tie::StdHash no longer inheriting the useless new() from Tie::Hash. So I am very sure that we can also move that class safely out of Tie/Hash.pm.

Having a fresh look at the code of both Tie::StdHash and Tie::Hash explains why nobody complained:

So, no class inheriting from Tie::StdHash needs a new() implementation.
