dynamic - Perl, dynamically include package

Question

Let's say I have a perl module file and I want to include and use it dynamically at runtime. Said module includes a class that I need to instantiate without knowing its name until runtime.

For example,

#inside module.pm

package module;

sub new {
#setup object
}

#inside main.pl

#get module.pm as argument
my $module_var = #load reference to module using text argument?
my $module_instance = $module_var->new();

Answer 1

This can be done without eval as follows:

my $module_name = 'Some::Module';

(my $require_name = $module_name . ".pm") =~ s{::}{/}g;

require $require_name;

my $obj = $module_name->new();

If you need to do this many times, just wrap up that code in a subroutine:

sub load_module {
    for (@_) {
        (my $file = "$_.pm") =~ s{::}{/}g;
        require $file;
    }
}

load_module 'Some::Module', 'Another::Module';
