in reply to Inherit only few methods from a parent class

As documented in use, modifying your use statement with an explicit list of routines to import will allow you to control how polluted your name space becomes, i.e.:

use parentModule qw(func1 func2 func3);

will import only the methods func1, func2 and func3 from the parent module.

Update: As JavaFan points out below, I jumped in a little quickly. Please disregard.

    That only handles importing names to namespaces. It has nothing to do (unless you're happening to do "if I call it 'mix-ins' I'm much cooler than when I just call it MI") with inheritance, other than that names of both techniques start with the same letter.
