=head1 NAME

Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation - A Moose Method metaclass for delegation methods

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a subclass of L<Moose::Meta::Method> for delegation
methods.

=head1 METHODS

=over 4

=item B<< Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation->new(%options) >>

This creates the delegation methods based on the provided C<%options>.

=over 4

=item I<attribute>

This must be an instance of C<Moose::Meta::Attribute> which this
accessor is being generated for. This options is B<required>.

=item I<delegate_to_method>

The method in the associated attribute's value to which we
delegate. This can be either a method name or a code reference.

=back

=item B<< $metamethod->associated_attribute >>

Returns the attribute associated with this method.

=item B<< $metamethod->delegate_to_method >>

Returns the method to which this method delegates, as passed to the
constructor.
