The solution for that in Perl is just like C: do { $$self->$method(@_) } while ($$self->next);

I'm about to pull the trigger and release to CPAN: https://github.com/sdondley/File-Collector/blob/subclasses_as_roles/README.mkdn

Feel free to take a quick look and see any show stoppers. I gave you a little shout out in the docs. :)

$PM = "Perl Monk's";
$MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot Bishop Pontiff Deacon Curate Priest Vicar";
$nysus = $PM . ' ' . $MCF;

I do not see anything obviously bad at a quick glance. I presume that it has tests and that they pass. Have you tried Devel::Cover to assess the code coverage of your test suite?

Ugh, my shout out got wiped out by dzil. Will fix later.

$PM = "Perl Monk's";
$MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot Bishop Pontiff Deacon Curate Priest Vicar";

The module is getting mature. I'm about halfway through writing up documentation for it.

I modified the Processor class so that it contains references back the files in the Collector class using some attributes. I also created a new File::Collector::Base which contains methods that can be used by both File::Collector and File::Collector::Processor.

Here is link to the GitHub repo.

Ah, yes. Of course. Thanks.
