It's not 100% the same thing... Wrapping is for wrapping only. This
applies to super methods, delegate methods, and so forth.
If I understand the semantics of wrap() properly, I believe you
can do everything with wrap that you want. I agree it's not the
optimal way though...for one
thing, you have to write the code inside out.
Not without breaking polymorphism, or doing creepy things like:
our method = $?CLASS.can(method).wrap {
...
call
...
};
instead of
method method {
$?SELF.SUPER::method; # what's the syntax for this, btw?
# Can't find it under s12
}
Hey, I said you /could/ do it, not that you /should/ or that it was
the best way. :
Actually, I agreed it wasn't, I was just throwing it out there as a
starting point.
On the other hand, one thing i'd like to borrow is the ability to
use 'call' for delegating subroutines:
sub foo will call(other) {
call; # just like saying other()
}
Seconded. Although it starts to get interesting when you want to
pass in multiple other()s.
