  • Err... (Score:1)

    by mauzo (8185) on 2008.03.07 7:19 (#61534)

    perl -MOur::Controller -MSub::Identify=stash_name -le'print stash_name(Our::Controller->can("method"))'
    ? Of course, that doesn't help with finding its super-methods, and if it does funny classless things then you'd need to instantiate an object. (Pause for a moment to hate the fact that perl parses

    stash_name Our::Controller->can(...)
    as a call to

    Our::Controller->stash_name
    ... wretched indirect object syntax.)

    • Actually, I use my Sub::Information [cpan.org] as it groups the info I need about subs in one spot. That being said, I typically don't reach for it as a first resort. I see a method or sub and I have the code open in my editor and I look for it. I only use tricky code when I'm really stuck because manually looking for code gives me a greater understanding of the overall code base. That's when I saw our lovely diamond inheritance which itself has diamonds further down :(
