I checked it into a google code SVN repo, so here ya go.

(Again, I still kinda consider myself a perl noob, atleast as far as creating perl modules goes and using OOP in perl, so don't hate! lol)

Basically, if you look in the sample (which some of it works, some doesn't, I doubt you have an F5 laying around to test it on though), the code is as below

my $connection = BigIP::F5->new($settings);

die ("Unable to connect to " . $settings{'server'} . "\nIt said: " . $
+connection->fault) if (!$connection);

I basically need the logic behind that to work, Yes I could make my module just die or croak, but id rather give the user the ability to end it in their own way if it throws a fail code

Please don't post (links to) offsite code. I prefer that you take the time to reduce your code (and problem) to a small, self-contained example.

That said, your example API can be made to work by using overload to return a false value on which you still can call methods. I'm not sure whether that's the best API though. I would (also for testing purposes) split up the call to new and the call to connect, and have the call to connect just return a false value:

my $conn = Net::Big5->new(...);

$conn->connect or die $conn->error;

That way you can make the call to connect fatal (via die) if it is in void context.
