This is clever. I like it.
So we'd end up with something inconvenient like
sub invoke_static {
my ($class, $method, @args) = @_;
no strict 'refs';
# I'd like to only localize *{$class}{IO},
# but we can't have everything, right?
local *{$class};
$class->$method(@args);
}
or something insane like
sub safe_from_evil_filehandles(&) {
my ($cb) = @_;
my @evil_globs;
... # walk through %:: and list all globs
# where *{$entry}{IO} is defined
# unless they're OK like "STDOUT"
my $localizer; $localizer = sub {
return $cb->() unless @evil_globs;
local *{shift @evil_globs};
return $localizer->();
};
return $localizer->();
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
