Contextual::Call - call sub with caller's context

Version 0.01

 use Contextual::Call qw(ccall);

 # invoke sub with your context.
 my $cc = ccall($coderef);

 ... some processes ..

 # and return value which was returned by $coderef and 
 # is matched with context.
 return $cc->result;

ccall function can invoke a function undef specified context (default is caller's context) and reproduce return value of that invocation.

This function is useful when you will override a method which returns different values between scalar and list context.

This module can export ccall function.

 $cc = ccall($coderef);

Call specified code-ref with your context, and return a Contextual::Call object which contains result of that call. You can get the result appropriate for context.

This function is shortcut to new constructor.

 $obj = Contextual::Call->new({ context => wantarray, sub => $coderef });

Call specified code-ref with your context, and return a Contextual::Call object. This method is OO-style of ccall function.

 return $obj->result();

Return result value with same context with ccall/new.
