=head1 NAME

Moose::Util - Utilities for working with Moose classes

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Moose::Util qw/find_meta does_role search_class_by_role/;

  my $meta = find_meta($object) || die "No metaclass found";

  if (does_role($object, $role)) {
    print "The object can do $role!\n";
  }

  my $class = search_class_by_role($object, 'FooRole');
  print "Nearest class with 'FooRole' is $class\n";

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a set of utility functions to help working with Moose classes, and 
is used internally by Moose itself. The goal is to provide useful functions
that for both Moose users and Moose extenders (MooseX:: authors).

This is a relatively new addition to the Moose toolchest, so ideas, 
suggestions and contributions to this collection are most welcome. 
See the L<TODO> section below for a list of ideas for possible functions 
to write.

=head1 EXPORTED FUNCTIONS

=over 4

=item B<find_meta ($class_or_obj)>

This will attempt to locate a metaclass for the given C<$class_or_obj>
and return it.

=item B<does_role ($class_or_obj, $role_name)>

Returns true if C<$class_or_obj> can do the role C<$role_name>.

=item B<search_class_by_role ($class_or_obj, $role_name)>

Returns first class in precedence list that consumed C<$role_name>.

=item B<apply_all_roles ($applicant, @roles)>

Given an C<$applicant> (which can somehow be turned into either a 
metaclass or a metarole) and a list of C<@roles> this will do the 
right thing to apply the C<@roles> to the C<$applicant>. This is 
actually used internally by both L<Moose> and L<Moose::Role>, and the
C<@roles> will be pre-processed through L<Data::OptList::mkopt>
to allow for the additional arguments to be passed. 

=item B<get_all_attribute_values($meta, $instance)>

Returns the values of the C<$instance>'s fields keyed by the attribute names.

=item B<get_all_init_args($meta, $instance)>

Returns a hash reference where the keys are all the attributes' C<init_arg>s
and the values are the instance's fields. Attributes without an C<init_arg>
will be skipped.

=item B<resolve_metaclass_alias($category, $name, %options)>

=item B<resolve_metatrait_alias($category, $name, %options)>

Resolve a short name like in e.g.

    has foo => (
        metaclass => "Bar",
    );

to a full class name.
