Re: Re: Re: Simple OO

Without the use statement I get:

No such class wolf at demo.pl line 22, near "my wolf"
syntax error at demo.pl line 22, near "my wolf="
[download]

The reason for this error message is a bit more obscure. (It has to do with something called "indirect object syntax".) However, the error goes away if turn the bareword wolf into the scalar $wolf.

  my $wolf=new sheep;
     ^
[download]

I suspect this is what you had in mind.

Obviously my brain is feeling unpunctuated today. Thank you all for the $help. Sorry to be a pain but any ideas on why I get a `Can't locate object method "bleet" via package "HASH" at demo.pl line +23.` [download] ? (Is this my cargo finally coming home?)	[reply] [d/l]

...any ideas on why I get... See Kanji's earlier response. ? (Is this my cargo finally coming home?) Perl requires a certain eye to punctuation. For a free language, it is surprisingly insistent on seeing dollar signs in the right places.	[reply]
