Version 3.03 is now available on:
http://search.cpan.org/search?dist=Class-Classgen-classgen

(Sorry, I provided too many examples, so this page appears a bit cluttered. 
Look for 'classgen' in the lower part of the page to access the documentation. 
I apologize for some bad formats, though.)

Creating Perl-objects by classgen:
1) edit a simple control file, specifying the intended variables inside the 
object
2) run classgen, which creates two .pm modules for you 3) simply use the object 
within another Perl-script 4) add more functions to the .pm with your editor 5) 
be productive ;-)

To create your object, just run:

classgen  my_object.control_file  My_Object.pm

I think there are many ways to use the skeltons created by classgen:

* beginners in Perl-OOP can easily create objects with complex internal data
structures one at a time; just use them; please have a look at
/examples/getting_started; /examples/peanuts may be worth a look, as well

* more advanced Perl-OOP users can utilize inheritance of object
hierarchies, easily; please have a look at /examples/inheritance

* if you know about UML perhaps implementing associations between different
objects becomes more interesting than inheritance; please have a look at
/examples/associations
