NAME

6       Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion - The Moose Type Coercion metaclass
7

DESCRIPTION

9       A type coercion object is basically a mapping of one or more type
10       constraints and the associated coercions subroutines.
11
12       It's unlikely that you will need to instantiate an object of this class
13       directly, as it's part of the deep internals of Moose.
14

METHODS

16       Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion->new(%options)
17           Creates a new type coercion object, based on the options provided.
18
19           ยท       type_constraint
20
21                   This is the Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint object for the type
22                   that is being coerced to.
23
24       $coercion->type_coercion_map
25           This returns the map of type constraints to coercions as an array
26           reference. The values of the array alternate between type names and
27           subroutine references which implement the coercion.
28
29           The value is an array reference because coercions are tried in the
30           order they are added.
31
32       $coercion->type_constraint
33           This returns the Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint that was passed to the
34           constructor.
35
36       $coercion->has_coercion_for_type($type_name)
37           Returns true if the coercion can coerce the named type.
38
39       $coercion->add_type_coercions( $type_name => $sub, ... )
40           This method takes a list of type names and subroutine references.
41           If the coercion already has a mapping for a given type, it throws
42           an exception.
43
44           Coercions are actually
45
46       $coercion->coerce($value)
47           This method takes a value and applies the first valid coercion it
48           finds.
49
50           This means that if the value could belong to more than type in the
51           coercion object, the first coercion added is used.
52
53       Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion->meta
54           This will return a Class::MOP::Class instance for this class.
