NAME

       Any::Moose - use Moose or Mouse modules

VERSION

       version 0.17

SYNOPSIS

   BASIC
	   package Class;

	   # uses Moose if it's loaded or demanded, Mouse otherwise
	   use Any::Moose;

	   # cleans the namespace up
	   no Any::Moose;

   OTHER MODULES
	   package Other::Class;
	   use Any::Moose;

	   # uses Moose::Util::TypeConstraints if the class has loaded Moose,
	   # Mouse::Util::TypeConstraints otherwise.
	   use Any::Moose '::Util::TypeConstraints';

   ROLES
	   package My::Sorter;
	   use Any::Moose 'Role';

	   requires 'cmp';

   COMPLEX USAGE
	   package My::Meta::Class;
	   use Any::Moose;

	   # uses subtype from Moose::Util::TypeConstraints if the class loaded Moose,
	   # subtype from Mouse::Util::TypeConstraints otherwise.
	   # similarly for Mo*se::Util's does_role
	   use Any::Moose (
	       '::Util::TypeConstraints' => ['subtype'],
	       '::Util' => ['does_role'],
	   );

	   # uses MouseX::Types or MooseX::Types
	   use Any::Moose 'X::Types';

	   # gives you the right class name depending on which Mo*se was loaded
	   extends any_moose('::Meta::Class');

DESCRIPTION

       Though we recommend that people generally use Moose, we accept that Moose cannot yet be used for everything everywhere. People generally
       like the Moose sugar, so many people use Mouse, a lightweight replacement for parts of Moose.

       Because Mouse strives for compatibility with Moose, it's easy to substitute one for the other. This module facilitates that substitution.
       By default, Mouse will be provided to libraries, unless Moose is already loaded -or- explicitly requested by the end-user. The end-user can
       force the decision of which backend to use by setting the environment variable "ANY_MOOSE" to be "Moose" or "Mouse".

       Note that the decision of which backend to use is made only once, so that if Any-Moose picks Mouse, then a third-party library loads Moose,
       anything else that uses Any-Moose will continue to pick Mouse.

       So, if you have to use Mouse, please be considerate to the Moose fanboys (like myself!) and use Any-Moose instead. ":)"

       Squirrel - a deprecated first-stab at Any-Moose-like logic. Its biggest fault was in making the decision of which backend to use every time
       it was used, rather than just once.
