alfie has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hi!
I am currently sitting with a Mason problem to which I don't find any solution in the documentation -- I might just have looked at the wrong pages....
The problem is like this: How do I know if a given (file-based) component exists prior to calling it and wrapping that in an eval block? I've found the method_exists and the attr_exists function but I don't find something like a component_exists. The usual -r or such tests don't really work easy for I would have to know the component paths for that and loop around them. Isn't there an easy way to tell prior to calling a component if it exists at all?
Thank you in advance for any hints or suggestions.
