Why not just use a GLOB reference alias?. This will make package Bar works as an alias for Foo:

  *Bar:: = \*Foo:: ;

Here's a sample:

package Foo ;

sub new { bless {} }

sub test { print "TEST> [@_]\n" ; }

package main ;

  *Bar:: = \*Foo:: ;

  my $foo = Foo->new() ;
  $foo->test(123) ;
  print "$foo\n" ;

  my $bar = Bar->new() ;
  $bar->test(456) ;
  print "$bar\n" ;
[download]

Output:

TEST> [Foo=HASH(0x1a4ece4) 123]
Foo=HASH(0x1a4ece4)
TEST> [Foo=HASH(0x15d53dc) 456]
Foo=HASH(0x15d53dc)

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
