Re^2: Data Dumper Japh

update: sorry about not using a spoiler tag...

sub Oxff cannot start with a number...(without symbolic refs tricks like

% stephan@armen (/home/stephan) %
% perl -we ' *{"11abc"} = sub { print q[ok] }; *{"11abc"}{CODE}->()'
ok

% stephan@armen (/home/stephan) %
% perl -we ' *{"11abc"} = sub { print q[ok] }; &{*{"11abc"}}()'
ok
[download]

actually I think the second form could work with less braces ...humm

cheers --stephan

You can't just omit the braces, but you can do this instead: `{"11abc"}->();` or `&{"11abc"}();` The first one works because you can dereference the glob like any of a scalar, array, hash, code, io, or glob reference. That is, when you do this, you don't explicitly need to take the right part of the glob with the foo{THING} notation. The second should be obvious.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
