I have need of calling any one of umpteen methods, like so...

print join ', ', Module::Submodule::Method( @args );
[download]

...where the arg list varies by quantity, etc. The real call is for Device::LabJack with a sample method call like so...

Device::LabJack::AISample( @args );
[download]

...and where the method might be 'AISample', 'EAnalogIn', 'EAnalogOut', or any of a long list of others. I don't want to write a separate call for each. What I'd very much like is some means of passing that method name in as a variable...the same variable which I now employ to trigger assembly of an appropriate arg list. Some way of doing what would otherwise look like the (incorrect) usage below...

Device::LabJack::$some_var_name( @args );
[download]

Might there be some methodology whereby I can pass a variable to stand in for the method name? I could then use a single outer method to pass that name to the inner like so...

 
sub pass_thru {
   my $self = shift;
   my $method_name = shift;
   my @args = ...assemble args for $method_name...
   return Device::Labjack::$_[0](@args)
[download]

Thanks,
