Re^2: Calling multi functions in a single statement

That sounds good. But from what you said I believe that there should be more than one XML_file subroutine so that once an object is returned by get_log_records() it could decide on which Package it should call XML_file(). Now if that is true, I found that the subroutine XML_file is only in one package and not in any other. So does that make any sense in executing  $logviewer->get_log_records()->XML_file(); . It could have rather just been written as

$logviewer->get_log_records();
$logviewer->XML_file();

Just because XML_file is in the same class as get_log_records doesn't mean the two statements are equivalent. Perhaps they are. But that depends on what get_log_records returns. And it only depends on what get_log_records returns.
