eval()ing a method call just to see if it exists (if that's really
what you meant) is ugly.
Instead, you should use:

if ($c->can('form')) {
  # code here
}

If you're not sure whether $c is an object or not, you should use:

if (UNIVERSAL::can($c, 'form')) {
  # code here
}

If I've missed your point, please, disregard this message.
