NAME
       MooseX::Types::LoadableClass - ClassName type constraint with coercion to load the class.

SYNOPSIS
	   package MyClass;
	   use Moose;
	   use MooseX::Types::LoadableClass qw/ LoadableClass /;

	   has foobar_class => (
	       is => 'ro',
	       required => 1,
	       isa => LoadableClass,
	       coerce => 1,
	   );

	   MyClass->new(foobar_class => 'FooBar'); # FooBar.pm is loaded or an
						   # exception is thrown.

DESCRIPTION
	   use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;

	   my $tc = subtype as ClassName;
	   coerce $tc, from Str, via { Class::MOP::load_class($_); $_ };

       I've written those three lines of code quite a lot of times, in quite a lot of places.

       Now I don't have to.

TYPES EXPORTED
   LoadableClass
       A normal class / package.

   LoadableRole
       Like "LoadableClass", except the loaded package must be a Moose::Role.
