Are there equivalents to Ruby's method_missing in other languages?

Question

In Ruby, objects have a handy method called method_missing which allows one to handle method calls for methods that have not even been (explicitly) defined:

Answer 1

Perl has AUTOLOAD which works on subroutines & class/object methods.

Subroutine example:

use 5.012;
use warnings;

sub AUTOLOAD {
    my $sub_missing = our $AUTOLOAD;
    $sub_missing =~ s/.*:://;
    uc $sub_missing;
}

say foo();   # => FOO

Class/Object method call example:

use 5.012;
use warnings;

{
    package Shout;

    sub new { bless {}, shift }

    sub AUTOLOAD {
        my $method_missing = our $AUTOLOAD;
        $method_missing =~ s/.*:://;
        uc $method_missing;
    }
}

say Shout->bar;         # => BAR

my $shout = Shout->new;
say $shout->baz;        # => BAZ
