NAME

SYNOPSIS

9         package MyObject;
10         use Class::MakeMethods::Basic::Hash (
11           'new'     => [ 'new' ],
12           'scalar'  => [ 'foo', 'bar' ]
13         );
14
15         package main;
16
17         my $obj = MyObject->new( foo => "Foozle", bar => "Bozzle" );
18         print $obj->foo();
19         $obj->bar("Barbados");

DESCRIPTION

22       This document describes the various subclasses of Class::MakeMethods
23       included under the Basic::* namespace, and the method types each one
24       provides.
25
26       The Basic subclasses provide stripped-down method-generation implemen‐
27       tations.
28
29       Subroutines are generated as closures bound to each method name.
30
31       Calling Conventions
32
33       When you "use" a subclass of this package, the method declarations you
34       provide as arguments cause subroutines to be generated and installed in
35       your module. You can also omit the arguments to "use" and instead make
36       methods at runtime by passing the declarations to a subsequent call to
37       "make()".
38
39       You may include any number of declarations in each call to "use" or
40       "make()". If methods with the same name already exist, earlier calls to
41       "use" or "make()" win over later ones, but within each call, later dec‐
42       larations superceed earlier ones.
43
44       You can install methods in a different package by passing "-TargetClass
45       => package" as your first arguments to "use" or "make".
46
47       See "USAGE" in Class::MakeMethods for more details.
48
49       Declaration Syntax
50
51       The following types of declarations are supported:
52
53       ·   generator_type => 'method_name'
54
55       ·   generator_type => 'name_1 name_2...'
56
57       ·   generator_type => [ 'name_1', 'name_2', ...]
58
59       For a list of the supported values of generator_type, see "BASIC
60       CLASSES" in Class::MakeMethods::Docs::Catalog, or the documentation for
61       each subclass.
62
63       For each method name you provide, a subroutine of the indicated type
64       will be generated and installed under that name in your module.
65
66       Method names should start with a letter, followed by zero or more let‐
67       ters, numbers, or underscores.
