+=head2 Error messages
+
+Type constraints can also specify custom error messages, for when they fail to
+validate. This is provided as just another coderef, which receives the invalid
+value in C<$_>, as in:
+
+ subtype 'PositiveInt',
+ as 'Int',
+ where { $_ > 0 },
+ message { "$_ is not a positive integer!" };
+
+If no message is specified, a default message will be used, which indicates
+which type constraint was being used and what value failed. If
+L<Devel::PartialDump> (version 0.14 or higher) is installed, it will be used to
+display the invalid value, otherwise it will just be printed as is.

and C<optimize_as>.

+ # Create a type called 'Box' which tests for objects which ->isa('ObjectLibrary::Box');
+ class_type 'Box', { class => 'ObjectLibrary::Box' };
+
=item B<role_type ($role, ?$options)>
Creates a C<Role> type constraint with the name C<$role> and the
metaclass L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Role>.
+ # Create a type called 'Walks' which tests for objects which ->does('Walks')
+ role_type 'Walks';

+ role_type 'Walks', { role => 'MooseX::Role::Walks' };
+
=item B<maybe_type ($type)>
Creates a type constraint for either C<undef> or something of the
isa => enum([qw[ ascending descending ]]),
);
+=item B<union ($name, \@constraints)>
+
+This will create a basic subtype where any of the provided constraints
+may match in order to satisfy this constraint.
+
+=item B<union (\@constraints)>
+
+If passed an ARRAY reference as the only parameter instead of the
+C<$name>, C<\@constraints> pair, this will create an unnamed union.
+This can then be used in an attribute definition like so:
+
+ has 'items' => (
+ is => 'ro',
+ isa => union([qw[ Str ArrayRef ]]),
+ );
+
+This is similar to the existing string union:
+
+ isa => 'Str|ArrayRef'
+
+except that it supports anonymous elements as child constraints:
+
+ has 'color' => (
+ isa => 'ro',
+ isa => union([ 'Int', enum([qw[ red green blue ]]) ]),
+ );
+
=item B<as 'Parent'>
This is just sugar for the type constraint construction syntax.
in C<$_>. This reference should return a string, which will be used in
the text of the exception thrown.
+=item B<inline_as { ... }>
+
+This can be used to define a "hand optimized" inlinable version of your type
+constraint.
+
+You provide a subroutine which will be called I<as a method> on a
+L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint> object. It will receive a single parameter, the
+name of the variable to check, typically something like C<"$_"> or C<"$_[0]">.
+
+The subroutine should return a code string suitable for inlining. You can
+assume that the check will be wrapped in parentheses when it is inlined.
+
+The inlined code should include any checks that your type's parent types
+do. If your parent type constraint defines its own inlining, you can simply use
+that to avoid repeating code. For example, here is the inlining code for the
+C<Value> type, which is a subtype of C<Defined>:
+
+ sub {
+ $_[0]->parent()->_inline_check($_[1])
+ . ' && !ref(' . $_[1] . ')'
+ }
+
=item B<optimize_as { ... }>
+B<This feature is deprecated, use C<inline_as> instead.>
+
This can be used to define a "hand optimized" version of your
type constraint which can be used to avoid traversing a subtype
constraint hierarchy.
-B<NOTE:> You should only use this if you know what you are doing,

are shallow) will not likely need to use this.

This creates a base type, which has no parent.
type( 'Foo', { where => ..., message => ... } );

-=item B<< coerce 'Name' => from 'OtherName' => via { ... } >>
+=item B<< coerce 'Name', from 'OtherName', via { ... } >>
This defines a coercion from one type to another. The C<Name> argument
is the type you are coercing I<to>.
+To define multiple coercions, supply more sets of from/via pairs:
+
+ coerce 'Name',
+ from 'OtherName', via { ... },
+ from 'ThirdName', via { ... };
+
=item B<from 'OtherName'>
This is just sugar for the type coercion construction syntax.
=item B<create_type_constraint_union($pipe_separated_types | @type_constraint_names)>
+=item B<create_named_type_constraint_union($name, $pipe_separated_types | @type_constraint_names)>
+
This can take a union type specification like C<'Int|ArrayRef[Int]'>,
or a list of names. It returns a new
L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union> object.
=item B<find_or_create_does_type_constraint($type_name)>
These functions will first call C<find_or_parse_type_constraint>. If
-that function does not return a type, a new anonymous type object will

be created.
The C<isa> variant will use C<create_class_type_constraint> and the
