in reply to Re: Module Data Dump.
in thread Module Data Dump.

Well, the thing I was asking was how would I call the method defined in the variable. I already have the code testing with UNIVERSAL::can. I think I have just about figured it out: 

my $data = &{$object->$method};
# do stuff with Data...

I will check out those modules though, cause there are several high chances that they will do this better than me.

Sorry about how short my last message was, I was running out of time on a public terminal.

      You mean that will actually work? Well, it certainly seems logical :)

        Have you tried? 

        my $does = bless {}, 'Test';
my $it = 'test';

my $answer = $does->$it('work?');
print $answer, "\n";

package Test;

sub test {
    return 'Sure';
}
