TIMTOWTDI: `use strict; package Question::Loaded; use vars ('@ISA'); @ISA = ('Question');` [download] or `package Question::Open; @ISA = ('Question'); use strict;` [download] or `package Question::MillionDollar; use strict; our @ISA = ('Question'); # if (perl -v >= 5.6)` [download] and there are other ways, too. it's a matter of style. Edit by tye: Note that use strict can appear before the package line but that putting use vars before the package line will cause the file to fail to compile while putting our before the package line will not work in less obvious ways.

If the parent class is in a separate file, consider using base.	[reply]

I think the best is `package Question; @Question::ISA=("Another");` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Another way is to use vars @ISA, this makes the package a little more portable inside of a source tree. package Question; use strict; use vars qw( @ISA ); @ISA = ( "Another" );	[reply]

No Problem! `use strict; package InheritedClass; # ... stuff for InheritedClass package NewClass; @NewClass::ISA = ("InheritedClass");` [download] Strict was kvetching about @ISA, which is actually a class variable within NewClass. Originally posted as a Categorized Answer.	[reply] [d/l]

`use strict; package Wombat; use base 'Marsupial';` [download] See Conway, Perl Best Practices, chapter 16: Class Hierarchies, Inheritance.	[reply] [d/l]


Do you know where your variables are?
