Hello again Thenothing,
When you say contrary you mean this?
main.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Mypackage;
my $object = new Mypackage();
$object->setValue(100);
print $object->getValue() . "\n"; # retrievable from any script
__END__
$ perl main.pl
100
Mypackage.pm
package Mypackage;
use strict;
use warnings;
sub new {
my $class = shift;
my $self = {
_value => shift,
};
bless $self, $class;
return $self;
}
sub getValue {
my( $self ) = @_;
return $self->{_value};
}
sub setValue {
my ( $self, $value ) = @_;
$self->{_value} = $value if defined($value);
# return $self->{_value};
}
1;
If not, show an example with words to understand what you mean.
Update: Maybe this? Initialize the class with a value and then update it?
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Mypackage;
my $object = new Mypackage(100);
print $object->getValue() . "\n";
$object->setValue(200);
print $object->getValue() . "\n";
__END__
$ perl main.pl
100
200
Hope this helps, BR.

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).
