There are a number of ways to get a function by name, but it depends on where the function is located. The following is an incomplete list of techniques.

~~Based on a posting to the Pike mailing list by Grubba~~


- Visible in any object:

{code}
       obj[fun]
{code}

- Visible in the current object:

{code}
       this_object()[fun]
{code}

     ~~or~~

{code}
       this[fun]
{code}

     ~~or~~

{code}
       ::`[](fun, 2)
{code}

- Visible in some lexically scoped object:

{code}
       scope::this[fun]
{code}

- In the current object including private and protected:

{code}
       ::`[](fun, 3)
{code}

- Visible in the current program:

{code}
       this_program::this[fun]
{code}

     ~~or~~

{code}
       ::`[](fun)
{code}

- In the current program (including private and protected):

{code}
       ::`[](fun, 1)
{code}

- efun:

{code}
       all_constants[fun]
{code}

- Module function:

{code}
       master()->resolv(fun)
{code}
