Re: Re: Symbol table globbing from object refs

But @ISA is usually lexical, which means i have to peek into it somehow. Ugly.
@ISA is also very flexible - code refs and such. I'm not sure I want to implement something that's already been done - emulation is never 100%

Morever, I can't guarantee this has a module, i'm expecting weird objects (classless ones, and so forth), so Module::Info doesn't work. At least not unless I use it on an opened scalar ref, containing B::Deparse's output. Very ugly.

Last but not least, this is too resource intensive for such a simple job, IMHO.

So what? You requirements/expectations are completely unrealistic.	[reply]

I think they are pretty reasonable... PodMaster was absolutely right about Devel::Symdump, and I was totally wrong about walking @ISA. For some reason I thought it was lexical by default. I managed to find a solution that doesn't parse it's own code, and works under 20 lines of code, so i think it's realistic... =) Update: well... no classless objects, but... -nuffin zz zZ Z Z #!perl	[reply]
