in thread Thorny design problem

Thanks for the cluebricks on eval, and on the keyword "plugin", which hadn't occurred to me. Searching for "plugin" in CPAN brings down about 600 hits, most of which are not general enough (e.g. Siesta::Plugin, PXP::Plugin, etc.), so I have some wading to do. If you remember any specific names, please let know.

Update: Thanks to mpeters for reminding me why I was fussing with eval.

    It's actually not so much a 'plugin' architecture, but a 'factory' design patter. Check out Class::Factory.
