Something changed in 5.22. $My::{$symbol} can return a code reference or -1 instead of a glob.
The following is therefore needed:
sub get_code_ref_by_fqn { # Fully qualified name
my ($fqn) = @_;
my @pkg_name_parts = split /::/, $fqn;
my $symbol = pop(@pkg_name_parts);
my $pkg = \%::;
for (@pkg_name_parts) {
$pkg = $pkg->{$_.'::'}
or return undef;
}
my $glob_or_code = $pkg->{$symbol}
or return undef;
return $glob_or_code if ref($glob_or_code);
return undef if ref(\$glob_or_code) ne 'GLOB';
return *$glob_or_code{CODE};
}
But you know what, let's just leave those dirty details to Perl.
sub get_code_ref_by_fqn { # Fully qualified name
my ($fqn) = @_;
no strict qw( refs );
return undef if !defined(&$fqn);
return \&$fqn;
}
Above tested using
use 5.012;
use warnings;
sub Foo::Bar::y;
sub Foo::Bar::z { }
say get_code_ref_by_fqn('Foo::Bar::x') // '[undef]';
say get_code_ref_by_fqn('Foo::Bar::y') // '[undef]';
say get_code_ref_by_fqn('Foo::Bar::z') // '[undef]';

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
