detemining the calling pakage

nachikethaz has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello, I got a package called 1.pm in that the constructor is calling a subroutine which is in the same package. Now if some other classes say 2.pm is calling the constructor defined in 1.pm how can i determine if the subroutine is called from 2.pm ?

The first parameter in @_ in the constructor subroutine should be the class name, even if it is called from a derived class.	[reply]
