NAME
Class::MOP::Method::Accessor - Method Meta Object for accessors
VERSION
version 2.1202
SYNOPSIS
use Class::MOP::Method::Accessor;
my $reader = Class::MOP::Method::Accessor->new(
attribute => $attribute,
is_inline => 1,
accessor_type => 'reader',
);
$reader->body->execute($instance); # call the reader method
DESCRIPTION
This is a subclass of "Class::MOP::Method" which is used by "Class::MOP::Attribute" to generate accessor code. It handles generation of
readers, writers, predicates and clearers. For each type of method, it can either create a subroutine reference, or actually inline code by
generating a string and "eval"'ing it.
METHODS
Class::MOP::Method::Accessor->new(%options)
This returns a new "Class::MOP::Method::Accessor" based on the %options provided.
o attribute
This is the "Class::MOP::Attribute" for which accessors are being generated. This option is required.
o accessor_type
This is a string which should be one of "reader", "writer", "accessor", "predicate", or "clearer". This is the type of method being
generated. This option is required.
o is_inline
This indicates whether or not the accessor should be inlined. This defaults to false.
o name
The method name (without a package name). This is required.
o package_name
The package name for the method. This is required.
$metamethod->accessor_type
Returns the accessor type which was passed to "new".
$metamethod->is_inline
Returns a boolean indicating whether or not the accessor is inlined.
$metamethod->associated_attribute
This returns the Class::MOP::Attribute object which was passed to "new".
$metamethod->body
The method itself is generated when the accessor object is constructed.
