[Openinteract-help] How do I keep a "private" non-DB field in an SPOPS object?

[Barry H. <ba...@tr...>]

I'm using SPOPS on a new project, and there are times where I want to 
check whether an object has a certain value in a links_to list.  Because 
I don't want to cycle through all of if to check each time, I wanted to 
create a private value, like

$self->{_feature_hash}

to store a hash for easy checking, but that doesn't work.  (I was doing 
it in post_fetch_action).  It gets cleared out, so that I can't use it.

I'm using SPOPS::Tool::DBI::DiscoverField to set up the fields in the 
database, and I set strict_field => 0 while I was testing.

What's the best way to do something like this?  Use Class::Accessor?
