This is probably your problem right here. Instance variables are, by
definition, not class variables, so they can't be updated on a class-wide
basis. I'm not sure if you're aware of the difference between a class, an
object, and an instance.
You should consider getting a book or tutorial that introduces you to the
basics of object-oriented Perl. Some good places to look are:
perldoc perlboot
perldoc perltoot
_Beginning Perl_ by Simon Cozens
_Object Oriented Perl_ by Damian Conway
I'm not certain about _Beginning Perl_, I haven't read it, but it does have
chapters on OO Perl. _Object Oriented Perl_ gets pretty advanced, but it
does have chapters on basic OO in Perl, and basic OO in general.
