Java is a good lang for OOP but if you want to user perl for many
operations you can do perl too.  

I bought a good book on <a  rel="nofollow" href="http://www.half.com";>http://www.half.com</a> called &quot;Object Oriented
Perl&quot;
<a  rel="nofollow" href="http://half.ebay.com/cat/buy/prod.cgi?cpid=1488698&amp;meta_id=1";>http://half.ebay.com/cat/buy/prod.cgi?cpid=1488698&amp;meta_id=1</a>

You can get good info from the oop perl docs but this book gives you
info on how to do things like you would do in other OOP languages.
