Create an object

• bless REF,CLASSNAME

• bless REF

  This function tells the thingy referenced by REF that it is now an objectin the CLASSNAME package. If CLASSNAME is omitted, the current packageis used. Because a bless is often the last thing in a constructor,it returns the reference for convenience. Always use the two-argumentversion if a derived class might inherit the function doing the blessing.Seeperlobj for more about the blessing (and blessings) of objects.

  Consider always blessing objects in CLASSNAMEs that are mixed case.Namespaces with all lowercase names are considered reserved forPerl pragmata. Builtin types have all uppercase names. To preventconfusion, you may wish to avoid such package names as well. Make surethat CLASSNAME is a true value.
