In file Animals.pm, I have
package Cow;
sub Cow::speak {
my $class = shift;
print "$class Cow goes moooo!\n";
}
package Horse;
sub Horse::speak {
my $class = shift;
print "$class Horse goes neigh!\n";
}
package Sheep;
sub Sheep::speak {
my $class = shift;
print "$class Sheep goes baaaah!\n";
}
1;
And calling script works like this. first code can print value of $class and second code doesnt, why ??
Working code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use lib '/home/perldood/Custom/perl/lib/perl5/Animals';
use Animals;
Cow->speak;
Horse->speak;
Sheep->speak;
Non working code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use lib '/home/perldood/Custom/perl/lib/perl5/Animals';
use Animals;
Cow::speak;
Horse::speak;
Sheep::speak;
Can you please explain, Why ??
Thanks

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
