in reply to Compile-time/Auto-test method checking?

It isn't the perfect solution, but my best friend when it comes to changing parameter list and/or renaming Perl methods is the bash command:

find ... -print0 | xargs -0 grep 'mymethodname' -or- find ... -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l 'mymethodname'

I use the first when I want to find all the files and lines containing my method name. I use the second when I just want to see which files have such lines. If you aren't familiar with the commands:

With all the find options, the command line can be quite long so I usually run it in a shell where I can keep history. That way I can simply recall the command via history, changing the method name as needed.

Best, beth
