=head1 NAME

Moose::Meta::Attribute - The Moose attribute metaclass

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a subclass of L<Class::MOP::Attribute> with Moose specific 
extensions. 

For the most part, the only time you will ever encounter an 
instance of this class is if you are doing some serious deep 
introspection. To really understand this class, you need to refer 
to the L<Class::MOP::Attribute> documentation.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 Overridden methods

These methods override methods in L<Class::MOP::Attribute> and add 
Moose specific features. You can safely assume though that they 
will behave just as L<Class::MOP::Attribute> does.

=item B<new>

=item B<generate_accessor_method>

=item B<generate_writer_method>

=head2 Additional Moose features

Moose attributes support type-contstraint checking, weak reference 
creation and type coercion.  

=over 4

=item B<has_type_constraint>

Returns true if this meta-attribute has a type constraint.

=item B<type_constraint>

A read-only accessor for this meta-attribute's type constraint. For 
more information on what you can do with this, see the documentation 
for L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint>.

=item B<is_weak_ref>

Returns true of this meta-attribute produces a weak reference.

=item B<should_coerce>

Returns true of this meta-attribute should perform type coercion.
