Try separating instantiation from initialization:

package foo;
use strict;

sub new
{
    print "foo::new\n";
    my $self = bless( {}, shift );
    $self->init(@_);
    return $self;
}

sub init
{
    print "foo::init\n";
    my $self = shift;
    my %args = ( foo=>undef, @_ );
    $args{foo} = "foo" if ! defined $args{foo};
    $self->foo($args{foo});
}

sub foo
{
    my $self = shift;
    $self->{_foo} = shift if @_;
    return $self->{_foo};
}

sub new
{

    my $self = bless( {}, shift );
    $self->init(@_);
    return $self;
}

sub init
{
    print "bar::init\n";
    my $self = shift;
    my %args = ( bar=>undef, @_ );
    $args{bar} = "bar" if ! defined $args{bar};
    $self->bar($args{bar});
}

sub bar
{
    my $self = shift;
    $self->{_bar} = shift if @_;
    return $self->{_bar};
}

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.
