NAME¶
Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class - Class/TypeConstraint parallel hierarchy
VERSION¶
version 2.1213
DESCRIPTION¶
This class represents type constraints for a class.
INHERITANCE¶
"Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class" is a subclass of
Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint.
METHODS¶
- Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class->new(%options)
- This creates a new class type constraint based on the given %options.
It takes the same options as its parent, with two exceptions. First, it
requires an additional option, "class", which is name of the
constraint's class. Second, it automatically sets the parent to the
"Object" type.
The constructor also overrides the hand optimized type constraint with one
it creates internally.
- $constraint->class
- Returns the class name associated with the constraint.
- $constraint->parents
- Returns all the type's parent types, corresponding to its parent
classes.
- $constraint->is_subtype_of($type_name_or_object)
- If the given type is also a class type, then this checks that the type's
class is a subclass of the other type's class.
Otherwise it falls back to the implementation in
Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint.
- $constraint->create_child_type(%options)
- This returns a new Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint object with the type as its
parent.
Note that it does not return a
"Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class" object!
- $constraint->get_message($value)
- This is the same as "get_message" in Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint
except that it explicitly says "isa" was checked. This is to
help users deal with accidentally autovivified type constraints.
BUGS¶
See "BUGS" in Moose for details on reporting bugs.
