Hi i am dealing with an object that I've created on my own. I want to catch control-C and throw a graceful exit subroutine that I have defined within the package itself. But i'm having problems with referencing to a method of an object.

 
i.e 
This works 
SIG{INT} = \&gracefulExit; 

This doesn't work 
SIG{INT} = "$self->gracefulExit"; 

################
package abc 
sub new { 
   my $class = shift; 
   my $self = {}; 
   bless $self, $class;
   return $self;
}

sub initialize { 
   my $self = shift; 
   $SIG{INT} = "$self->gracefulExit";
} 

sub gracefulExit {
   my $self = shift;
   # Cleanup 
   exit(); 
}
1

################ 
# start of script 
use abc; 
$test = new abc(); 
$test->initialize(); 
# Control- C returns ... 

SIGINT handler "abc=HASH(0x229c34)->gracefulExit" not defined.

I'm not sure why this is so, 
appreciate the help guys.
