I know that. But I want one expression to determine the condition, I want to avoid (for reasons of pure idiocy) to have an extra assignment... So something like `print defined main::{$symbol}->{CODE} ? "yep": "nope";` [download] But I cannot do it...	[reply] [d/l]

It's `$glob && $glob{CODE}`, not `defined main::{$symbol}->*{CODE}`.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

First of all thanks a lot for solving my problem. But I was wondering if there is an expression that would avoid having a two-step solution (i.e. without first assigning a temporary $glob variable). So is there an expression that when I have a symbol ("hubba" say) I could do a `$some_convoluted_expression{hubba}->{CODE}` [download] (or something like that) to determine whether or not there is a sub-routine of that name in the main-package. But this is for bonus-points only...	[reply] [d/l]
