Yes, there is a way to avoid this. Starting from Perl 5.8, you can use the lock_keys function provided in Hash:Util package, to lock your attributes, after you initialized them.
One example here:
ex10.pm:
package ex10;
use Hash::Util;
sub new {
my $self = {};
$self->{ATTR_ABXCDEFG} = 1;
$self->{ATTR_ABCXDEFG} = 2;
$self->{ATTR_ABCDXEFG} = 3;
$self->{ATTR_ABCDEXFG} = 4;
$self->{ATTR_ABCDEFXG} = 5;
bless($self);
Hash::Util::lock_keys(%{$self});
return $self;
}
sub do_something_1 {
my $self = shift;
$self->{ATTR_ABCXDEFG} = 10;
}
sub do_something_2 {
my $self = shift;
print $self->{ATTR_ABCXDEFG};
}
sub do_something_3 {
my $self = shift;
$self->{ATTR_AXBCDEFG} = 10;
}
sub do_something_4 {
my $self = shift;
print $self->{ATTR_AXBCDEFG};
}
1;
ex10.pl:
use ex10;
$e = new ex10;
$e->do_something_1;
$e->do_something_2;
$e->do_something_3; #see what will happen, if you comment out this
$e->do_something_4; #try to comment out this

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).
