NAME¶
Moose::Meta::Role::Attribute - The Moose attribute metaclass for Roles
VERSION¶
version 2.1213
DESCRIPTION¶
This class implements the API for attributes in roles. Attributes in roles are
more like attribute prototypes than full blown attributes. While they are
introspectable, they have very little behavior.
METHODS¶
This class provides the following methods:
- Moose::Meta::Role::Attribute->new(...)
- This method accepts all the options that would be passed to the
constructor for Moose::Meta::Attribute.
- $attr->metaclass
- $attr->is
- Returns the option as passed to the constructor.
- $attr->associated_role
- Returns the Moose::Meta::Role to which this attribute belongs, if
any.
- $attr->original_role
- Returns the Moose::Meta::Role in which this attribute was first defined.
This may not be the same as the value of "associated_role()" for
attributes in a composite role, or when one role consumes other
roles.
- $attr->original_options
- Returns a hash reference of options passed to the constructor. This is
used when creating a Moose::Meta::Attribute object from this object.
- $attr->attach_to_role($role)
- Attaches the attribute to the given Moose::Meta::Role.
- $attr->attribute_for_class($metaclass)
- Given an attribute metaclass name, this method calls
"$metaclass->interpolate_class_and_new" to construct an
attribute object which can be added to a Moose::Meta::Class.
- $attr->clone
- Creates a new object identical to the object on which the method is
called.
- $attr->is_same_as($other_attr)
- Compares two role attributes and returns true if they are identical.
In addition, this class implements all informational predicates implements by
Moose::Meta::Attribute (and Class::MOP::Attribute).
