39 This module provides several functions which allow you to store values
40 in a hash corresponding to both objects and classes, and to retrieve
41 those values by searching a object's inheritance tree until it finds a
42 matching entry.
43
44 This functionality is used by Class::MakeMethods::Standard::Inheritable
45 and Class::MakeMethods::Composite::Inheritable to construct methods
46 that can both store class data and be overriden on a per-object level.
47
49 find_vself
50 $vself = find_vself( $dataset, $instance );
51
52 Searches $instance's inheritance tree until it finds a matching entry
53 in the dataset, and returns either the instance, the class that
54 matched, or undef.
55
56 get_vvalue
57 $value = get_vvalue( $dataset, $instance );
58
59 Searches $instance's inheritance tree until it finds a matching entry
60 in the dataset, and returns that value
61
62 set_vvalue
63 $value = set_vvalue( $dataset, $instance, $value );
64
65 Searches $instance's inheritance tree until it finds a matching entry
66 in the dataset, and returns that value
