48 This utility module is designed to help authors of Moose extensions
49 write extensions that are able to cooperate with other Moose
50 extensions. To do this, you must write your extensions as roles, which
51 can then be dynamically applied to the caller's metaclasses.
52
53 This module makes sure to preserve any existing superclasses and roles
54 already set for the meta objects, which means that any number of
55 extensions can apply roles in any order.
56
58 The easiest way to use this module is through Moose::Exporter, which
59 can generate the appropriate "init_meta" method for you, and make sure
60 it is called when imported.
61
63 This module provides two functions.
64
65 apply_metaroles( ... )
66 This function will apply roles to one or more metaclasses for the
67 specified class. It will return a new metaclass object for the class or
68 role passed in the "for" parameter.
69
70 It accepts the following parameters:
71
72 · for => $name
73
74 This specifies the class or for which to alter the meta classes.
75 This can be a package name, or an appropriate meta-object (a
76 Moose::Meta::Class or Moose::Meta::Role).
77
78 · class_metaroles => \%roles
79
80 This is a hash reference specifying which metaroles will be applied
81 to the class metaclass and its contained metaclasses and helper
82 classes.
83
84 Each key should in turn point to an array reference of role names.
85
86 It accepts the following keys:
87
88 class
89 attribute
90 method
91 wrapped_method
92 instance
93 constructor
94 destructor
95 error
96 · role_metaroles => \%roles
97
98 This is a hash reference specifying which metaroles will be applied
99 to the role metaclass and its contained metaclasses and helper
100 classes.
101
102 It accepts the following keys:
103
104 role
105 attribute
106 method
107 required_method
108 conflicting_method
109 application_to_class
110 application_to_role
111 application_to_instance
112 application_role_summation
113 applied_attribute
114
115 apply_base_class_roles( for => $class, roles => \@roles )
116 This function will apply the specified roles to the object's base
117 class.
