NAME

       Class::MOP::Module - Module Meta Object

VERSION

       version 2.1202

DESCRIPTION

       A module is essentially a Class::MOP::Package with metadata, in our case the version and authority.

INHERITANCE

       Class::MOP::Module is a subclass of Class::MOP::Package.

METHODS

       Class::MOP::Module->create($package, %options)
	   Overrides "create" from Class::MOP::Package to provide these additional options:

	   "version"
	       A version number, to be installed in the $VERSION package global variable.

	   "authority"
	       An authority, to be installed in the $AUTHORITY package global variable.

       $metamodule->version
	   This is a read-only attribute which returns the $VERSION of the package, if one exists.

       $metamodule->authority
	   This is a read-only attribute which returns the $AUTHORITY of the package, if one exists.

       $metamodule->identifier
	   This constructs a string which combines the name, version and authority.

       Class::MOP::Module->meta
	   This will return a Class::MOP::Class instance for this class.
