NAME

6       Class::MakeMethods::Docs::Catalog - List of Makable Method Types
7

DESCRIPTION

9       This document lists the various subclasses of Class::MakeMethods
10       included in this distribution, and the method types each one provides.
11
12       See the documentation for each implementation for more details about
13       the features it provides.
14
15       For each class, a parenthetical comment indicates whether the methods
16       it generates are applicable to individual blessed objects (Instances),
17       to class data (Global), or both (Any)
18

338
339   Template::PackageVar (Global)
340       PackageVar methods access a variable in the declaring package. Thus,
341       they have the same effect as Static methods, while keeping their value
342       accessible via the symbol table.  See
343       Class::MakeMethods::Template::PackageVar.

372       ·   hash: get and set values in a class-specific hash
373
374   Template::ClassVar (Global)
375       ClassVar methods access a variable in the package on which they are
376       called.  Thus, they have the same effect as Class methods, while
377       keeping their value accessible via the symbol table, like PackageVar.
378       See Class::MakeMethods::Template::ClassVar.
379
380       ·   scalar: get and set a class-specific scalar value

392   Template::ClassInherit (Global)
393       ClassInherit methods are an intermediate point between Static and Class
394       methods; subclasses inherit their superclass's value until they set
395       their own value, after which they become distinct. See
396       Class::MakeMethods::Template::ClassInherit.
397
398       ·   scalar: get and set an inheritable class-specific scalar value
399
