5 mst: if I do "subtype 'Foo' => as 'Bar';" I get an empty condition and it dies

11 - should handle some moose-specific options in &Moose::Meta::Class::create
12 things like roles, and method modifiers (although those can probably be
17 Add support for doing it with Classes which do not have
18 a type constraint yet created
24 - inherited slot specs
26 'does' can be added to,.. but not changed
27 (need type unions for this)
31 a proxied attribute is an attribute
32 which looks like an attribute,
33 talks like an attribute, smells
34 like an attribute,.. but if you
35 look behind the curtain,.. its
36 over there.. in that other object
38 (... probably be a custom metaclass)
40 - compile time extends
42 [00:39] sri but maybe a better syntax for compile time extends
43 [00:39] stevan I have been pondering that actually
44 [00:39] sri use Moose extends => Foo::Bar
45 [00:40] stevan I think now that we have the Sub::Exporter stuff
46 in, that kinda thing should be pretty easy
48 nothingmuch notes that all the constructs should be supported in the entirety of the use clause:
56 and that if this usage style is used nothing is exported to the namespace.
58 - default should dclone()
60 - subtype $anon_subtype => where { ... }
62 [22:56] stevan sub mst_doesnt_like_to_type { (shift)->meta->attr->type_contstraint }
65 [22:57] stevan are you wanting to reuse it or something?
66 [22:57] stevan my $subtype = subtype 'Something' => where { ... };
67 [22:58] stevan then you can do isa => $subtype
68 [22:58] mst but I can't subtype it again
69 [22:59] stevan mst: ahhh...
70 [22:59] mst well, I can. but it suddenly gets very "long way round" ish
71 [23:00] stevan my $constraint = Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint->new(
72 [23:00] stevan name => $name || '__ANON__',
73 [23:00] stevan parent => $parent,
74 [23:00] stevan constraint => $check,
75 [23:00] stevan message => $message,
77 [23:00] stevan yeah thats kinda the long way
78 [23:00] stevan mst: what would you like it to be?
79 [23:00] mst $parent = find_type_constraint($parent) if defined $parent;
80 [23:00] mst if $parent is already a type constraint
81 [23:00] mst skip that bit
83 [23:00] mst should be all you need to change
85 [23:01] stevan so you can then say
86 [23:01] stevan subtype $anon => where { ... };
92 [23:37] mst more seriously, I'd still like a "method" keyword or something
93 [23:37] mst method 'foo' => sub { ... };
94 [23:38] stevan what would it do more than sub foo { ... }?
95 [23:39] stevan I would like multimethods actually
96 [23:39] mst almost exactly nothing, to begin with
97 [23:39] stevan but thats just cause I love CLOS and am reading a book on Dylan now
98 [23:40] stevan keyword squating :)
99 [23:40] mst but if we need to hook stuff later it's bloody handy to already have people writing it that way
102 [23:49] mst oh, also: method 'has' => sub { ... } could squelch the redefine warning
106 [13:16] mst stevan: slight problem with coerce
107 [13:16] mst I only get to declare it once
108 [13:17] mst so if I'm trying to declare it cast-style per-source-class rather than per-target-class
109 [13:17] mst I am extremely screwed
111 [13:17] stevan they are not class specific
112 [13:18] stevan they are attached to the type constraint itself
113 [13:18] * stevan ponders anon-coercion-metaobjects
114 [13:18] mst yes, that's fine
115 [13:19] mst but when I declare a class
116 [13:19] mst I want to be able to say "this class coerces to X type via <this>"
117 [13:19] stevan yeah something like that
118 [13:19] stevan oh,.. hmm
119 [13:20] stevan sort of like inflate/deflate?
120 [13:20] stevan around the accessors?
121 [13:25] * bluefeet has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
123 [13:27] mst nothing like that
124 [13:27] mst like a cast
125 [13:31] mst stevan: $obj->foo($bar); where 'foo' expects a 'Foo' object
126 [13:31] mst stevan: is effectively <Foo>$bar, right?
127 [13:32] mst stevan: I want to be able to say in package Bar
128 [13:32] mst stevan: coerce_to 'Foo' via { ... };

137 - Moose "strict" mode
139 use Moose 'strict'; This would allow us to have all sort of expensive tests
140 which can be turned off in prod.
142 - Moose::Philosophy.pod
144 To explain Moose from a very high level
148 We certainly have enough meta-information to make pretty complete POD docs.
