It's hard. I've tried. The best option I've found that doesn't involve mucking about in perlguts, interpreting PP code, and trying to recreate stashes and the like, is to keep around the text of an eval()d sub, or make a string that contains code to recreate the reference.

There are rumblings that The Damian is working on something to allow Data::Dumper to dump code references, and the same sort of technology will be much easier to attach to Storable. For now... good luck.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
