CLASS and $CLASS are both synonyms for __PACKAGE__. Easier to type. $CLASS has the additional benefit of working in strings. CLASS is a constant, not a subroutine call. $CLASS is a plain variable, it is not tied. There is no performance loss for using CLASS over __PACKAGE__ except the loading of the module. ok simon@
