369=head1 NAME
370
6ba6d68c 371Moose::Meta::Attribute - The Moose attribute metaclass
c0e30cf5 372
373=head1 DESCRIPTION
374
e522431d 375This is a subclass of L<Class::MOP::Attribute> with Moose specific
6ba6d68c 376extensions.
377
378For the most part, the only time you will ever encounter an
379instance of this class is if you are doing some serious deep
380introspection. To really understand this class, you need to refer
381to the L<Class::MOP::Attribute> documentation.
e522431d 382
c0e30cf5 383=head1 METHODS
384
6ba6d68c 385=head2 Overridden methods
386
387These methods override methods in L<Class::MOP::Attribute> and add
388Moose specific features. You can safely assume though that they
389will behave just as L<Class::MOP::Attribute> does.

a15dff8d 401=back
402
6ba6d68c 403=head2 Additional Moose features
404
8449e6e7 405Moose attributes support type-constraint checking, weak reference
6ba6d68c 406creation and type coercion.
407
a15dff8d 408=over 4
409
9e93dd19 410=item B<clone_and_inherit_options>
411
412This is to support the C<has '+foo'> feature, it clones an attribute
413from a superclass and allows a very specific set of changes to be made
414to the attribute.
415
a15dff8d 416=item B<has_type_constraint>
417
6ba6d68c 418Returns true if this meta-attribute has a type constraint.
419
a15dff8d 420=item B<type_constraint>
421
6ba6d68c 422A read-only accessor for this meta-attribute's type constraint. For
423more information on what you can do with this, see the documentation
424for L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint>.
a15dff8d 425
452bac1b 426=item B<has_handles>
427
428Returns true if this meta-attribute performs delegation.
429
430=item B<handles>
431
432This returns the value which was passed into the handles option.
433
6ba6d68c 434=item B<is_weak_ref>
a15dff8d 435
02a0fb52 436Returns true if this meta-attribute produces a weak reference.
4b598ea3 437
ca01a97b 438=item B<is_required>
439
02a0fb52 440Returns true if this meta-attribute is required to have a value.
ca01a97b 441
442=item B<is_lazy>
443
02a0fb52 444Returns true if this meta-attribute should be initialized lazily.
ca01a97b 445
446NOTE: lazy attributes, B<must> have a C<default> field set.
447
34a66aa3 448=item B<should_coerce>
4b598ea3 449
02a0fb52 450Returns true if this meta-attribute should perform type coercion.
6ba6d68c 451
536f0b17 452=item B<should_auto_deref>
453
454Returns true if this meta-attribute should perform automatic
455auto-dereferencing.
456
457NOTE: This can only be done for attributes whose type constraint is
458either I<ArrayRef> or I<HashRef>.
459
8c9d74e7 460=item B<has_trigger>
461
02a0fb52 462Returns true if this meta-attribute has a trigger set.
463
8c9d74e7 464=item B<trigger>
465
02a0fb52 466This is a CODE reference which will be executed every time the
467value of an attribute is assigned. The CODE ref will get two values,
468the invocant and the new value. This can be used to handle I<basic>
469bi-directional relations.
