Re^3: Imported symbol names

You're confusing yourself. How are you going to allow your users to use this? Will they use the OO interface, the procedural interface, or will you allow them to use both? The easiest thing on you is to allow one or the other. The OO interface is easiest and the procedural isn't too difficult, once you see it done once. Doing them both is going to be more trouble than it's worth, IMHO.

I think you're correct i was confusing myself. Im really only going for the OO interface, i just dont see the point of the function oriented interface, eventually someone will have symbol clashes	[reply]

If that's all you want, then it doesn't matter at all what to do with `use CGI qw( :form );`, cause no-one should ever use it. All they need to do is change the `my $q = CGI->new;` to `my $q = CGI::shemp->new;` and everything will "Just Work"™. ------ We are the carpenters and bricklayers of the Information Age.
