# maybe_next_method Tail-call the next implementation of the currently executing method if one exists; otherwise return quietly. ## Synopsis sub DESTROY { my $self = shift; … # cleanup $self->maybe::next::method; } Equivalent to `$self->next::method(@_) if $self->next::can` in the common case, but also works as the target of `goto &maybe::next::method` where the conditional Perl form does not. The usual reason to reach for it is a `DESTROY` or hook method where missing parent implementations are normal.
