248 # ABSTRACT: Package Meta Object
256 The Package Protocol provides an abstraction of a Perl 5 package. A
257 package is basically namespace, and this module provides methods for
258 looking at and changing that namespace's symbol table.
264 =item B<< Class::MOP::Package->initialize($package_name, %options) >>
266 This method creates a new C<Class::MOP::Package> instance which
267 represents specified package. If an existing metaclass object exists
268 for the package, that will be returned instead. No options are valid at the
271 =item B<< Class::MOP::Package->reinitialize($package, %options) >>
273 This method forcibly removes any existing metaclass for the package
274 before calling C<initialize>. In contrast to C<initialize>, you may
275 also pass an existing C<Class::MOP::Package> instance instead of just
276 a package name as C<$package>.
278 Do not call this unless you know what you are doing.
280 =item B<< Class::MOP::Package->create($package, %options) >>
282 Creates a new C<Class::MOP::Package> instance which represents the specified
283 package, and also does some initialization of that package. Currently, this
284 just does the same thing as C<initialize>, but is overridden in subclasses,
285 such as C<Class::MOP::Class>.
287 =item B<< Class::MOP::Package->create_anon(%options) >>
289 Creates a new anonymous package. Valid keys for C<%options> are:
295 If this is true (the default), the instance stored in C<Class::MOP>'s metaclass
296 cache will be weakened, so that the anonymous package will be garbage collected
297 when the returned instance goes out of scope.
301 =item B<< $metapackage->is_anon >>
303 Returns true if the package is an anonymous package.
305 =item B<< $metapackage->name >>
307 This is returns the package's name, as passed to the constructor.
309 =item B<< $metapackage->namespace >>
311 This returns a hash reference to the package's symbol table. The keys
312 are symbol names and the values are typeglob references.
314 =item B<< $metapackage->add_package_symbol($variable_name, $initial_value) >>
316 This method accepts a variable name and an optional initial value. The
317 C<$variable_name> must contain a leading sigil.
319 This method creates the variable in the package's symbol table, and
320 sets it to the initial value if one was provided.
322 =item B<< $metapackage->get_package_symbol($variable_name) >>
324 Given a variable name, this method returns the variable as a reference
325 or undef if it does not exist. The C<$variable_name> must contain a
328 =item B<< $metapackage->get_or_add_package_symbol($variable_name) >>
330 Given a variable name, this method returns the variable as a reference.
331 If it does not exist, a default value will be generated if possible. The
332 C<$variable_name> must contain a leading sigil.
334 =item B<< $metapackage->has_package_symbol($variable_name) >>
336 Returns true if there is a package variable defined for
337 C<$variable_name>. The C<$variable_name> must contain a leading sigil.
339 =item B<< $metapackage->remove_package_symbol($variable_name) >>
341 This will remove the package variable specified C<$variable_name>. The
342 C<$variable_name> must contain a leading sigil.
344 =item B<< $metapackage->remove_package_glob($glob_name) >>
346 Given the name of a glob, this will remove that glob from the
347 package's symbol table. Glob names do not include a sigil. Removing
348 the glob removes all variables and subroutines with the specified
351 =item B<< $metapackage->list_all_package_symbols($type_filter) >>
353 This will list all the glob names associated with the current
354 package. These names do not have leading sigils.
356 You can provide an optional type filter, which should be one of
357 'SCALAR', 'ARRAY', 'HASH', or 'CODE'.
359 =item B<< $metapackage->get_all_package_symbols($type_filter) >>
361 This works much like C<list_all_package_symbols>, but it returns a
362 hash reference. The keys are glob names and the values are references
363 to the value for that name.
365 =item B<< Class::MOP::Package->meta >>
367 This will return a L<Class::MOP::Class> instance for this class.
