NAME new - Object instantiation sugar for one-liners SYNOPSIS Simplest possible usage: perl -Mnew=HTTP::Tiny -E \ 'say $O->get("http://trout.me.uk/X11/vimrc")->{content}' With arguments: perl -Mnew=HTTP::Tiny,max_redirects,3 -E \ 'say $O->get("http://trout.me.uk/X11/vimrc")->{content}' With custom object name: perl -Mnew=HTTP::Tiny,\$H -E \ 'say $H->get("http://trout.me.uk/X11/vimrc")->{content}' With both: perl -Mnew=HTTP::Tiny,\$H,max_redirects,3 -E \ 'say $H->get("http://trout.me.uk/X11/vimrc")->{content}' DESCRIPTION import new->import($class, @args) First we "require" the file for $class, then call $class->new(@args) then install the resulting object in $O in the calling package. Caveat: if $class loads successfully but does not have a "new" method, we install the $class instead since you might want to call class methods. If the first argument to "import" after $class begins with "$", this is treated as the name to install the object as, so new->import($class, '$Obj', @args); will create a variable $Obj in the calling package instead of $O.
