No it's not :) I was just asking, and answering. I like perl and I will use it more on. I was just filosofing away and trying to get answers for why is perl good. Because when we will get a new project I want perl to be the test environment and the WILL ask questions like these :)

It's object oriented - in some senses more so than Java. I'm not sure what you mean by "higher class decalrations" or "no higher hierarchy apart from moduls". Modules are packages with their own namespaces. In general the facilities for organising code are comparable with any other language that supports namespaces. There's loads of material about this at perldoc.perl.org and elsewhere on the 'net - and this isn't a Perl advocacy list. > So I'm only guessing that in large it would be quit unmanagalbe. > Thinking of the enviroment we had...

That is quite not good :) That sounds like an organisational problem that's independent of the choice of language. -- Andy Armstrong, Hexten
