I agree with Conrad and matz nearly wholeheartly. The only thing they have missed is to mention references. They are represented with scalars, but they are not scalars in Perl's sense. A Perl object is simply a data structure (array, scalar, hash) that happens to remember, in which package it belongs to. This is the *intentionally* design in Perl! Many Perl lovers moan about this design too!!! > > i agree the term object for perl is kinda strange, but it permits a lot of > things... even changing your parent class dynamically! (maybe ruby has it, i > haven't look much at OO in ruby yet) i agree it is *not* usefull and *is* > dangerous You think "strange"? I think "ugly"! And I stand not alone therewith! It looks ugly, it behaves ugly and it is ugly to use! Furthermore I think dynamically changing of the baseclass *may* be very useful, and is not dangerous if you *know* what you do! If I fear it, I do not use it. But it is nice if a language provide such possibility! \cle -- Clemens Hintze mailto: c.hintze@gmx.net
