=head1 NAME

Class::Accessor::Grouped - Lets you build groups of accessors

=head1 SYNOPSIS

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This class lets you build groups of accessors that will call different
getters and setters.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 mk_group_accessors

=over 4

=item Arguments: $group, @fieldspec

Returns: none

=back

Creates a set of accessors in a given group.

$group is the name of the accessor group for the generated accessors; they
will call get_$group($field) on get and set_$group($field, $value) on set.

@fieldspec is a list of field/accessor names; if a fieldspec is a scalar
this is used as both field and accessor name, if a listref it is expected to
be of the form [ $accessor, $field ].

=head2 mk_group_ro_accessors

=over 4

=item Arguments: $group, @fieldspec

Returns: none

=back

Creates a set of read only accessors in a given group. Identical to
<L:/mk_group_accessors> but accessors will throw an error if passed a value
rather than setting the value.

=head2 mk_group_wo_accessors

=over 4

=item Arguments: $group, @fieldspec

Returns: none

=back

Creates a set of write only accessors in a given group. Identical to
<L:/mk_group_accessors> but accessors will throw an error if not passed a
value rather than getting the value.

=item Arguments: $group, $field

Returns: $sub (\CODE)

=back

Returns a single accessor in a given group; called by mk_group_accessors
for each entry in @fieldspec.

=head2 get_simple

=over 4

=item Arguments: $field

Returns: $value

=back

Simple getter for hash-based objects which returns the value for the field
name passed as an argument.

  return $self->{$get};
}

=head2 set_simple

Simple setter for hash-based objects which sets and then returns the value
for the field name passed as an argument.

=head2 get_inherited

=over 4

=item Arguments: $field

Returns: $value

=back

Simple getter for Classes and hash-based objects which returns the value for the field name passed as
an argument. This behaves much like L<Class::Data::Accessor> where the field can be set in a
base class, inherited and changed in subclasses, and inherited and changed for object instances.

    };

=head2 set_inherited

=over 4

=item Arguments: $field, $new_value

Returns: $new_value

=back

Simple setter for Classes and hash-based objects which sets and then returns the value
for the field name passed as an argument. When called on a hash-based object it will set the appropriate
hash key value. When called on a class, it will set a class level variable.

B<Note:>: This method will die if you try to set an object variable on a non hash-based object.

        } else {
            croak('Cannot set inherited value on an object instance that is not hash-based');
        };
    } else {
        no strict 'refs';

        return ${$self.'::__cag_'.$set} = $val;
    };
}

=head2 get_super_paths

Returns a list of 'parent' or 'super' class names that the current class inherited from.

=cut

sub get_super_paths {
    my $class = blessed $_[0] || $_[0];

    return Class::ISA::super_path($class);
