83 ArrayBasedStorage - An example of an Array based instance storage
90 ':instance_metaclass' => 'ArrayBasedStorage::Instance'
93 __PACKAGE__->meta->add_attribute('foo' => (
100 $class->meta->new_object(@_);
103 # now you can just use the class as normal
107 This is a proof of concept using the Instance sub-protocol
108 which uses ARRAY refs to store the instance data.
110 This is very similar now to the InsideOutClass example, and
111 in fact, they both share the exact same test suite, with
112 the only difference being the Instance metaclass they use.
