Re: strange code (de)referencing behavior

Calling a subroutine this way

&{...}
[download]

forwards the @_ arguments. (Try sub f { say while $_ = shift; warn "Called\n" } %d = (1 => \&f); sub g { &{$d{1}} }; g(1, 2).) If you want to avoid that, use -> for dereference:

$dispatchTable{$fname}->();

Although I do prefer the arrow notation, the minimal change solution is actually `&{$dispatchTable{$fname}}()` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
