=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.

If you want to mimic Class::Accessor's mk_accessors $group has to be 'simple'
to tell Class::Accessor::Grouped to use its own get_simple and set_simple
methods.

@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 ].

Simple getter for Classes and hash-based objects which returns the value for
the field name passed as an argument. This behaves much like

inherited and changed in subclasses, and inherited and changed for object

=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.

=head2 get_component_class

=item Arguments: $field

Returns: $value

=back

Gets the value of the specified component class.

    __PACKAGE__->mk_group_accessors('component_class' => 'result_class');

    $self->result_class->method();

    ## same as
    $self->get_component_class('result_class')->method();

=cut

sub get_component_class {
    return $_[0]->get_inherited($_[1]);
};

=head2 set_component_class

=over 4

=item Arguments: $field, $class

Returns: $new_value

=back

Inherited accessor that automatically loads the specified class before setting
it. This method will die if the specified class could not be loaded.

    __PACKAGE__->mk_group_accessors('component_class' => 'result_class');
    __PACKAGE__->result_class('MyClass');

    $self->result_class->method();

=cut

sub set_component_class {

            Carp::croak("Could not load $_[1] '$_[2]': ", $@) if $@;
        };
    };

    return $_[0]->set_inherited($_[1], $_[2]);

=head2 get_super_paths

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

sub get_super_paths {
    return @{mro::get_linear_isa( ref($_[0]) || $_[0] )};
};

=head1 PERFORMANCE

To provide total flexibility L<Class::Accessor::Grouped> calls methods
internally while performing get/set actions, which makes it noticeably
slower than similar modules. To compensate, this module will automatically
use the insanely fast L<Class::XSAccessor> to generate the C<simple>-group
accessors, if L<< Class::XSAccessor >= 1.06|Class::XSAccessor >> is
available on your system.

=head2 Benchmark

This is the result of a set/get/set loop benchmark on perl 5.12.1 with
thread support, showcasing most popular accessor builders: L<Moose>, L<Mouse>,
L<CAF|Class::Accessor::Fast>, L<CAF_XS|Class::Accessor::Fast::XS>
and L<XSA|Class::XSAccessor>:

=head2 Notes on Class::XSAccessor

While L<Class::XSAccessor> works surprisingly well for the amount of black
magic it tries to pull off, it's still black magic. At present (Sep 2010)
the module is known to have problems on Windows under heavy thread-stress
(e.g. Win32+Apache+mod_perl). Thus for the time being L<Class::XSAccessor>
will not be used automatically if you are running under C<MSWin32>.

You can force the use of L<Class::XSAccessor> before creating a particular
C<simple> accessor by either manipulating the global variable
C<$Class::Accessor::Grouped::USE_XS>, or you can do so before runtime via the
C<CAG_USE_XS> environment variable.
