440 | The Package Protocol provides an abstraction of a Perl 5 package. A |
441 | package is basically namespace, and this module provides methods for |
442 | looking at and changing that namespace's symbol table. |

447 | |
116a9f45 |
448 | =item B<< Class::MOP::Package->initialize($package_name) >> |
449 | |
450 | This method creates a new C<Class::MOP::Package> instance which |
451 | represents specified package. If an existing metaclass object exists |
452 | for the package, that will be returned instead. |
453 | |
7975280a |
454 | =item B<< Class::MOP::Package->reinitialize($package) >> |
2243a22b |
455 | |
116a9f45 |
456 | This method forcibly removes any existing metaclass for the package |
7975280a |
457 | before calling C<initialize>. In contrast to C<initialize>, you may |
458 | also pass an existing C<Class::MOP::Package> instance instead of just |
459 | a package name as C<$package>. |
127d39a7 |
460 | |
116a9f45 |
461 | Do not call this unless you know what you are doing. |
6d5355c3 |
462 | |
116a9f45 |
463 | =item B<< $metapackage->name >> |
127d39a7 |
464 | |
116a9f45 |
465 | This is returns the package's name, as passed to the constructor. |
a19fcb5b |
466 | |
116a9f45 |
467 | =item B<< $metapackage->namespace >> |
a19fcb5b |
468 | |
116a9f45 |
469 | This returns a hash reference to the package's symbol table. The keys |
470 | are symbol names and the values are typeglob references. |
6d5355c3 |
471 | |
116a9f45 |
472 | =item B<< $metapackage->add_package_symbol($variable_name, $initial_value) >> |
b9d9fc0b |
473 | |
116a9f45 |
474 | This method accepts a variable name and an optional initial value. The |
475 | C<$variable_name> must contain a leading sigil. |
a5e51f0b |
476 | |
116a9f45 |
477 | This method creates the variable in the package's symbol table, and |
478 | sets it to the initial value if one was provided. |
b9d9fc0b |
479 | |
116a9f45 |
480 | =item B<< $metapackage->get_package_symbol($variable_name) >> |
b9d9fc0b |
481 | |
116a9f45 |
482 | Given a variable name, this method returns the variable as a reference |
483 | or undef if it does not exist. The C<$variable_name> must contain a |
484 | leading sigil. |
b9d9fc0b |
485 | |
116a9f45 |
486 | =item B<< $metapackage->has_package_symbol($variable_name) >> |
6d5355c3 |
487 | |
116a9f45 |
488 | Returns true if there is a package variable defined for |
489 | C<$variable_name>. The C<$variable_name> must contain a leading sigil. |
6d5355c3 |
490 | |
116a9f45 |
491 | =item B<< $metapackage->remove_package_symbol($variable_name) >> |
6d5355c3 |
492 | |
116a9f45 |
493 | This will remove the package variable specified C<$variable_name>. The |
494 | C<$variable_name> must contain a leading sigil. |
6d5355c3 |
495 | |
116a9f45 |
496 | =item B<< $metapackage->remove_package_glob($glob_name) >> |
b9d9fc0b |
497 | |
116a9f45 |
498 | Given the name of a glob, this will remove that glob from the |
499 | package's symbol table. Glob names do not include a sigil. Removing |
500 | the glob removes all variables and subroutines with the specified |
501 | name. |
b9d9fc0b |
502 | |
116a9f45 |
503 | =item B<< $metapackage->list_all_package_symbols($type_filter) >> |
b9d9fc0b |
504 | |
116a9f45 |
505 | This will list all the glob names associated with the current |
506 | package. These names do not have leading sigils. |
c46b802b |
507 | |
116a9f45 |
508 | You can provide an optional type filter, which should be one of |
509 | 'SCALAR', 'ARRAY', 'HASH', or 'CODE'. |
9d6dce77 |
510 | |
116a9f45 |
511 | =item B<< $metapackage->get_all_package_symbols($type_filter) >> |
b9d9fc0b |
512 | |
116a9f45 |
513 | This works much like C<list_all_package_symbols>, but it returns a |
514 | hash reference. The keys are glob names and the values are references |
515 | to the value for that name. |

519 | =head2 Method introspection and creation |
520 | |
521 | These methods allow you to introspect a class's methods, as well as |
522 | add, remove, or change methods. |
523 | |
524 | Determining what is truly a method in a Perl 5 class requires some |
525 | heuristics (aka guessing). |
526 | |
527 | Methods defined outside the package with a fully qualified name (C<sub |
528 | Package::name { ... }>) will be included. Similarly, methods named |
529 | with a fully qualified name using L<Sub::Name> are also included. |
530 | |
531 | However, we attempt to ignore imported functions. |
532 | |
533 | Ultimately, we are using heuristics to determine what truly is a |
534 | method in a class, and these heuristics may get the wrong answer in |
535 | some edge cases. However, for most "normal" cases the heuristics work |
536 | correctly. |
537 | |
538 | =over 4 |
539 | |
540 | =item B<< $metapackage->get_method($method_name) >> |
541 | |
542 | This will return a L<Class::MOP::Method> for the specified |
543 | C<$method_name>. If the class does not have the specified method, it |
544 | returns C<undef> |
545 | |
546 | =item B<< $metapackage->has_method($method_name) >> |
547 | |
548 | Returns a boolean indicating whether or not the class defines the |
549 | named method. It does not include methods inherited from parent |
550 | classes. |
551 | |
b1ff395f |
552 | =item B<< $metapackage->get_method_list >> |
553 | |
554 | This will return a list of method I<names> for all methods defined in |
555 | this class. |
556 | |
557 | =item B<< $metapackage->add_method($method_name, $method) >> |
558 | |
559 | This method takes a method name and a subroutine reference, and adds |
560 | the method to the class. |
561 | |
562 | The subroutine reference can be a L<Class::MOP::Method>, and you are |
563 | strongly encouraged to pass a meta method object instead of a code |
564 | reference. If you do so, that object gets stored as part of the |
565 | class's method map directly. If not, the meta information will have to |
566 | be recreated later, and may be incorrect. |
567 | |
568 | If you provide a method object, this method will clone that object if |
569 | the object's package name does not match the class name. This lets us |
570 | track the original source of any methods added from other classes |
571 | (notably Moose roles). |
572 | |
573 | =item B<< $metapackage->remove_method($method_name) >> |
574 | |
575 | Remove the named method from the class. This method returns the |
576 | L<Class::MOP::Method> object for the method. |
577 | |
578 | =item B<< $metapackage->method_metaclass >> |
579 | |
580 | Returns the class name of the method metaclass, see |
581 | L<Class::MOP::Method> for more information on the method metaclass. |
582 | |
583 | =item B<< $metapackage->wrapped_method_metaclass >> |
584 | |
585 | Returns the class name of the wrapped method metaclass, see |
586 | L<Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped> for more information on the wrapped |
587 | method metaclass. |
588 | |
116a9f45 |
589 | =item B<< Class::MOP::Package->meta >> |
ae234dc6 |
590 | |
116a9f45 |
591 | This will return a L<Class::MOP::Class> instance for this class. |
