[Catalyst] Constructor's instrumentation

[Antoine HULIN]

I'd like to see what's going on in a model's constructor (the class is
named Fact::M::Storage). So I added the following statement :

 $c->log->info("taratata");

The statement is executed but the script fails later on as shown in the
following trace :

  gabuzo at meuh:~/Fact$ ./script/fact_server.pl

  Can't call method "isa" without a package or object reference at

  BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./script/fact_server.pl line 13.


Line 387 in Dispatcher is the inheritance test in setup_action() :

        # We only setup components that inherit from Catalyst::Base
	next unless $comp->isa('Catalyst::Base');

I also replaced $c-log->info() with a print statement and got the same
behaviour.

I don't understand why this logging is so disturbing and I'd like to
know what the right way to see what's going on in a constructor is.
