Re^4: Distinguish method/function call during debugger?

Oh. You're wrong then. The information is clearly there.

~$ perl -MO=Concise -e '$o->foo'
      entersub
         pushmark
         ex-rv2sv
            gvsv[*o] s
         method_named[PVIV "foo"]
~$ perl -MO=Concise -e 'foo( $o )'
      entersub
         ex-list
            pushmark
            ex-rv2sv
               gvsv[*o]
            ex-rv2cv
               gv[*foo]

You only showed that Perl knows how it should call a function, not that the it knows how a function was called. Perl obviously has to know how to call a function (since one checks `@ISA` and the other doesn't), but that doesn't mean it keeps track of how a function was called. Despite your claim, you haven't shown me wrong (yet). Update: I was unhappy with my original wording. I rephrased what I wrote to make more sense.	[reply] [d/l]
