OK, I think I see what you are saying. So essentially, my Base class does the following when the "do" method is called on it:
package Base;
use One;
use Two;
use Three;
sub do {
print "hi from Base\n";
Three::do;
Two::do;
One::do;
}
And my config file would determine which order to run the subroutines from each of the packages. Is that right?
UPDATE: Here is a version of the code above that is a bit more dynamic:
package Base ;
use One;
use Two;
use Three;
sub new {
my $class = shift;
bless { steps => [ qw(Three Two One) ] }, $class;
}
sub do {
my $s = shift;
print "hi from Base\n";
for my $step ( @{ $s->{steps} } ) {
$step->do;
}
}
So I think I got it from here. I just have to dynamically import the correct modules and populate the steps attribute with the config file during construction. Nice trick. Thanks!

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).
