Is some_method a class method or instance method? Is it a constructor? Class::DBI objects already have a constructor for making objects. The constructor

BTW, most class methods can be called on objects instead of with the class name if you already have an object to work with. The dispatch works and most class methods don't use the class name. The only place it doesn't work are with constructors where the class name is used with bless. Some constructors will use the "ref($proto) || $proto" idom to get the class name from an object.

Also, Class::DBI uses a lot of class methods to setup the class. Most of them can be used on objects. But an object created before the class is configured will not work right.

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • 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.
