In the following code, in the sub-routine names new(), I have used something like:

_proc => $action1,

my perception is that, in this case _proc holds a copy of the value present in $action and this is a costly method doing things, as the $self object would be very heavy to pass-on or call.
I tried to declare something like:
_proc => \$action1,

But it did not work out well for me.. :(
Please advice.

package Engine; use strict; use My::Module; my $action1 = sub { $pkt = shift; #where $pkt is an object of type My:Module:Object my $id = $pkt->get('ID'); #........ #do this #do that... print $id; } sub new { my $class = @_; return bless { _xp => My::Module->new(), _proc => $action1, } }; sub routine { my $s = shift; $s->{_xp}->process(); my @arr = $s->{_xp}->getvalues("packet"); map($action1->($_), @arr); }
