libclass-default-perl | Perl module to make static calls apply to a default instantiation | Mehr ...
Class::Default provides a mechanism to allow your class to take static method calls and apply it to a default instantiation of an object. It provides a flexibility to an API that allows it to be used more comfortably in different situations. . This technique appears to be especially useful when writing modules that you want to be used in either a single use or a persistent environment. In a CGI like environment, you want the simplicity of a static interface. You can call Class->method directly, without having to pass an instantiation around constantly.
