+Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Parameterizable - Type constraints which can take a parameter (ArrayRef)
 
-=item B<has_constraint_generator>
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
 
-=item B<generate_constraint_for>
+This class represents a parameterizable type constraint. This is a
+type constraint like C<ArrayRef> or C<HashRef>, that can be
+parameterized and made more specific by specifying a contained
+type. For example, instead of just an C<ArrayRef> of anything, you can
+specify that is an C<ArrayRef[Int]>.
 
-=item B<parse_parameter_str>
+A parameterizable constraint should not be used as an attribute type
+constraint. Instead, when parameterized it creates a
+L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Parameterized> which should be used.
 
-Given a string, convert it to a Perl structure.
+=head1 INHERITANCE
 
-=item B<parameterize>
+C<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Parameterizable> is a subclass of
+L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint>.
 
-Given an array of type constraints, parameterize the current type constraint.

+This class is intentionally not documented because the API is
+confusing and needs some work.
