Then why did you write (and use?) Class::Prototyped for Perl <g>?
An explanation for the rest of you on the list:
Toby is the author of a Self-like object model for Perl. This is a module
that's available on CPAN and lets you combine regular old Perl 5 (either
without objects, or using Perl's simple object model) with slot-based
prototypes.
Since he may be the only user of this module, I should let him explain how it
works in practice.
In the interests of full disclosure, I have to say that I helped writing
Class::Prototyped, but I didn't inhale. And I quit working with Perl a long
time ago.
