NAME

       HTML::Mason::MethodMaker - Used to create simple get & get/set methods in other classes

SYNOPSIS

	use HTML::Mason::MethodMaker
	    ( read_only => 'foo',
	      read_write => [
			     [ bar => { type => SCALAR } ],
			     [ baz => { isa => 'HTML::Mason::Baz' } ],
			     'quux', # no validation
			    ],
	      read_write_contained => { other_object =>
					[
					 [ 'thing1' => { isa => 'Thing1' } ],
					 'thing2', # no validation
					]
				      },
	    );

DESCRIPTION

       This automates the creation of simple accessor methods.

USAGE

       This module creates methods when it is "use"'d by another module.  There are three types of methods: 'read_only', 'read_write',
       'read_write_contained'.

       Attributes specified as 'read_only' get an accessor that only returns the value of the attribute.  Presumably, these attributes are set via
       more complicated methods in the class or as a side effect of one of its methods.

       Attributes specified as 'read_write' will take a single optional parameter.  If given, this parameter will become the new value of the
       attribute.  This value is then returned from the method.  If no parameter is given, then the current value is returned.

       If you want the accessor to use "Params::Validate" to validate any values passed to the accessor (and you _do_), then the the accessor
       specification should be an array reference containing two elements.  The first element is the accessor name and the second is the
       validation spec.

       The 'read_write_contained' parameter is used to create accessor for delayed contained objects.  A delayed contained object is one that is
       not created in the containing object's accessor, but rather at some point after the containing object is constructed.  For example, the
       Interpreter object creates Request objects after the Interpreter itself has been created.

       The value of the 'read_write_contained' parameter should be a hash reference.  The keys are the internal name of the contained object, such
       as "request" or "compiler".  The values for the keys are the same as the parameters given for 'read_write' accessors.

NAME

       HTML::Mason::Compiler::ToObject - A Compiler subclass that generates Mason object code

SYNOPSIS

	 my $compiler = HTML::Mason::Compiler::ToObject->new;

	 my $object_code =
	     $compiler->compile( comp_source => $source,
				 name	     => $comp_name,
				 comp_path   => $comp_path,
			       );

DESCRIPTION

       This Compiler subclass generates Mason object code (Perl code).	It is the default Compiler class used by Mason.

PARAMETERS TO THE new() CONSTRUCTOR
       All of these parameters are optional.

       comp_class
	   The class into which component objects are blessed.	This defaults to HTML::Mason::Component.

       subcomp_class
	   The class into which subcomponent objects are blessed.  This defaults to HTML::Mason::Component::Subcomponent.

       in_package
	   This is the package in which a component's code is executed.  For historical reasons, this defaults to "HTML::Mason::Commands".

       preamble
	   Text given for this parameter is placed at the beginning of each component, but after the execution of any "<%once>" block. See also
	   postamble. The request will be available as $m in preamble code.

       postamble
	   Text given for this parameter is placed at the end of each component. See also preamble.  The request will be available as $m in
	   postamble code.

       use_strict
	   True or false, default is true. Indicates whether or not a given component should "use strict".

       named_component_subs
	   When compiling a component, use uniquely named subroutines for the a component's body, subcomponents, and methods. Doing this allows
	   you to effectively profile Mason components. Without this, all components simply show up as __ANON__ or something similar in the
	   profiler.

       define_args_hash
	   One of "always", "auto", or "never".  This determines whether or not an %ARGS hash is created in components.  If it is set to "always",
	   one is always defined.  If set to "never", it is never defined.

	   The default, "auto", will cause the hash to be defined only if some part of the component contains the string "ARGS".  This is somewhat
	   crude, and may result in some false positives, but this is preferable to false negatives.

	   Not defining the args hash means that we can avoid copying component arguments, which can save memory and slightly improve execution
	   speed.

ACCESSOR METHODS

       All of the above properties have read-only accessor methods of the same name. You cannot change any property of a compiler after it has
       been created (but you can create multiple compilers with different properties).

METHODS

       This class is primarily meant to be used by the Interpreter object, and as such has a very limited public API.

       compile(...)
	   This method will take component source and return the compiled object code for that source. See "compile(...)" in HTML::Mason::Compiler
	   for details on this method.

	   This subclass also accepts a "comp_class" parameter, allowing you to override the class into which the component is compiled.
