26 print "Oops: $_";
27 };
28
29 my $point;
30 my $xval = 'forty-two';
31 my $xattribute = Point->meta->find_attribute_by_name('x');
32 my $xtype_constraint = $xattribute->type_constraint;
33
34 if ( $xtype_constraint->check($xval) ) {
35 $point = Point->new( x => $xval, y => 0 );

42 This is the Point example from
43 Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Point_AttributesAndSubclassing with type
44 checking added.
45
46 If we try to assign a string value to an attribute that is an "Int",
47 Moose will die with an explicit error message. The error will include
48 the attribute name, as well as the type constraint name and the value
49 which failed the constraint check.
50
51 We use Try::Tiny to catch this error message.
52
53 Later, we get the Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint object from a
54 Moose::Meta::Attribute and use the Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint to check
55 a value directly.
