Hello,

I have a similar problem. I want to call a class method of a "dynamic" class "dynamically", i.e. I want to make a call like

my $result = MODULES::$submodule::$method ($data);

[download]

I tried different things like

my $request = "MODULES::$submodule::$method";
my $result  = &$request ($data);

[download]

or

my $result = eval "$request ($data)";

[download]

but I didn't succeed. The even worst thing is that the program keeps on running without any error, only the method trying to call another method seems to "die" without any hint.
Actually this problem is common to my current project. Does anybody have a clue about that?

Thanks.

Marco
