=head1 SYNOPSIS
Autoties are most commonly used in the module to which they actually tie,
and need to export their attributes to any module that calls them. To
-facilitiate this, Attribute::Handlers recognizes a special "pseudo-class" --
+facilitate this, Attribute::Handlers recognizes a special "pseudo-class" --
C<__CALLER__>, which may be specified as the qualifier of an attribute:
package Tie::Me::Kangaroo:Down::Sport;
- use Attribute::Handlers autotie => { __CALLER__::Roo => __PACKAGE__ };
+ use Attribute::Handlers autotie => { '__CALLER__::Roo' => __PACKAGE__ };
This causes Attribute::Handlers to define the C<Roo> attribute in the package
that imports the Tie::Me::Kangaroo:Down::Sport module.
+Note that it is important to quote the __CALLER__::Roo identifier because
+a bug in perl 5.8 will refuse to parse it and cause an unknown error.
+
=head3 Passing the tied object to C<tie>
Occasionally it is important to pass a reference to the object being tied
subroutine ceased to exist between the point it was declared and the point
at which its attribute handler(s) would have been called.
+=item C<Won't be able to apply END handler>
+
+You have defined an END handler for an attribute that is being applied
+to a lexical variable. Since the variable may not be available during END
+this won't happen.
