What I did

m​: Proxy.new

What I got

rakudo-moar 52b6f2​: OUTPUT«Unhandled exception​: Cannot invoke this object (REPR​: P6opaque, cs = 0)␤ at src/gen/m-BOOTSTRAP.nqp​:1288 (/home/camelia/rakudo-inst-1/share/nqp/lib/Perl6/BOOTSTRAP.moarvm​::10)␤ from src/gen/m-main.nqp​:40 (/home/camelia/rakudo-inst-1/share/perl6/run…»

What I expected

rakudo-moar 52b6f2​: ( no output )

jnthn​: Needs a FETCH/STORE providing; seems we want better error checking for that.

  RT #​125663​: Better error message for bare Proxy.new

Now just needs a test.

The RT System itself - Status changed from 'new' to 'open'

From @moritz

Closing without a test, since the .new method from BOOTSTRAP.pm doesn't throw a typed exception, and so testing would be fragile and/or quite some effort.

@moritz - Status changed from 'open' to 'resolved'
