Moose is kind of a deep place to jump into, if you are new to OOP in perl, but the things you are asking for are fairly simple to do in the Moose framework.

In Moose there are separate ideas of a Class and a Role and objects created from these blocks can be joined either at the Class level or the instance level.

An example from the documentation for basic pre-instance mixing and method conflicts is found in the Moose::Role Manual

First Role

package Breakable;
 
use Moose::Role;
 
has 'is_broken' => (
    is  => 'rw',
    isa => 'Bool',
);
 
sub break {
    my $self = shift;
 
    print "I broke\n";
 
    $self->is_broken(1);
}

Second Role

package Breakdancer;
 
use Moose::Role
 
sub break {
 
}

And a class that uses methods from the Role

package FragileDancer;
 
use Moose;
 
with 'Breakable'   => { -alias => { break => 'break_bone' } },
     'Breakdancer' => { -alias => { break => 'break_dance' } };

Update: The Moose is flying part I and II are the gentlest introductions that I know of. (by Randal L. Schwartz++)

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


Come for the quick hacks, stay for the epiphanies.
