eval swallows all errors. This is not what you want if you suspect compile-time errors in your code. Instead, use require, especially when using OO-style modules:

...
my $class="MHE::" . $opts->{type};
my $filename= $class) =~ s!::!/!g;
require "$filename.pm";
...

Alternatively, you can check $@ after the eval for errors:

    eval "use MHE::$opts->{type} qw(sendHeartbeat); 1"
        or die "Couldn't load 'MHE::$opts->{type}': $@";
