Re^3: Object oriented Perl: What's popular?

Moose is more than just "Everything's a Moose::Object".

I was over-symplifying, of course, in the process of trying to cater for the OP's Java-based background.

We can also do prototype style OO

Now *that* would be interesting, although the URL you link to seems to be broken.

Software speaks in tongues of man; I debug, therefore I code.
Stop saying 'script'. Stop saying 'line-noise'.

I had been talking to merlyn (who is apparently a big fan of prototype based OO) and he was asking of Moose could be made to do it. Of course, its not really a pure prototype based OO, but a thin prototype-ish layer over the class based system Moose uses, and implemented using metaclasses. It's fairly complete, so it probably could be made for real-world use, but I don't have the need or desire to do so, it was just fun to write :) -stvn	[reply]
