Re: List Wrapper for Object Methods.

Another option to Arunbear's use of AUTOLOAD (which is the standard Perl solution to delegation) is to build the methods programmatically.

package Anything::List;

use strict;

# Include all the methods in this list that you
# want to delegate to the Anything class
my @delegate_methods = qw(
    prepare_create
    create
);

foreach my $method (@delegate_methods)
{
    # We're playing with the symbol table, here!
    no strict 'refs';

    *$method = sub {
        my $self = shift;
        $_->$method( @_ ) for @$self;
    };
}

# Continue on with the rest of the Anything::List class here.

Being right, does not endow the right to be rude; politeness costs nothing.
Being unknowing, is not the same as being stupid.
Expressing a contrary opinion, whether to the individual or the group, is more often a sign of deeper thought than of cantankerous belligerence.
Do not mistake your goals as the only goals; your opinion as the only opinion; your confidence as correctness. Saying you know better is not the same as explaining you know better.
