Before looking for books, try out some of the documentation that comes with Perl (i.e. perldoc). Specifically, look at perlboot, perltoot (probably the most usefuly start for you, since you already know what OO is), perltooc and perlbot. If you'd like something on dead trees I'd recommend starting off with Object Oriented Perl by TheDamian. It's a bit oldish (1999), so it's missing the latest flashy tricks like inside-out objects, but it will give you a solid grounding on how OOP works in Perl 5. Once you've understood that, learning how the new kids do it is easy.

Oh, and have a look at Moose if you want to see (something similar to) how Perl 6 will be doing OOP.


All dogma is stupid.
