Hi, I am writing a package with some subs. One of these subs can be called for an instance of the object ($obj->get_defaults()) or as a static sub (Example::Package->get_defaults()). The behaviour of the sub depends on the kind of call. The following code accomplishes this goal, but it looks a bit dirty to me ...
sub get_defaults { my $self = shift; $self = undef if ($self eq 'Example::Package'); if (defined($self)) .... } Is there a cleaner way to find out, if the sub was called as an object method or as a static sub? thanks, Lars -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
