Hello
I've got a little problem with method invocation, here is a code:
my $l = new z; $l->{xxx4} = 'wrong way'; my $str = 'xxx'; my $str1 = "4"; my $str2 = "param1"; eval ("print \$l->$str$str1(\$str2)"); package z; sub new { my $class = shift; my $self = {}; return bless $self, $class; }; sub xxx4 { my $self = shift; my $param = shift; return "were requested xxx4: $param \n"; };
It's just an example to show the problem.
The point is:
eval ("print \$l->$str$str1(\$str2)");
I want make same actions without using eval.
At perlobj there is an example:
$method = $fast ? "findfirst" : "findbest"; $fred->$method(@args); # call by name
so for my case it will be something like
my $method = $str.$str1; print $l->$method($str2);
the question is: can it be done at single string?
Thank you.
