I like the idea overall, and anything that can simplify the interface is more
than welcome. However:
* I'd rather not have to specify a signature for a non-polymorphic function.
* I'd like to be able to use Perl code to call the functions as discussed
previously, something like:
my $count_sql = SP->tl_activity_stats_sql(
[ statistic => $stat, person_id => $pid ],
$debug
);
For a Polymorphic function, perhaps it could be something like:
my $count = SP->call(
tl_activity_stats_sql => [qw(text[] int)],
[ statistic => $stat, person_id => $pid ],
$debug
);
The advantage here is that I'm not writing functions inside strings, and only
provide the signature when I need to disambiguate between polymorphic variants.
Anyway, That's just interface arguing. The overall idea is sound and very much
appreciated.
Best,
David
