-
-Moose is a rapidly maturing module, and is already being used by
-a number of people. It's test suite is growing larger by the day,
-and the docs should soon follow.
-
-This said, Moose is not yet finished, and should still be considered
-to be evolving. Much of the outer API is stable, but the internals
-are still subject to change (although not without serious thought
-given to it).

=head1 DESCRIPTION
Perl 5 objects better, but it also provides the power of metaclass
programming.
-=head2 Can I use this in production? Or is this just an experiment?
+=head2 Is this for real? Or is this just an experiment?
Moose is I<based> on the prototypes and experiments I did for the Perl 6
-meta-model; however Moose is B<NOT> an experiment/prototype, it is
-for B<real>. I will be deploying Moose into production environments later
-this year, and I have every intentions of using it as my de facto class
-builder from now on.
+meta-model. However, Moose is B<NOT> an experiment/prototype; it is for B<real>.
+
+=head2 Is this ready for use in production?
+
+Yes, I believe that it is.
+
+I have two medium-to-large-ish web applications which use Moose heavily
+and have been in production (without issue) for several months now. At
+$work, we are re-writing our core offering in it. And several people on
+#moose have been using it (in production) for several months now as well.
+
+Of course, in the end, you need to make this call yourself. If you have
+any questions or concerns, please feel free to email me, or even the list
+or just stop by #moose and ask away.
=head2 Is Moose just Perl 6 in Perl 5?
No. While Moose is very much inspired by Perl 6, it is not itself Perl 6.
-Instead, it is an OO system for Perl 5. I built Moose because I was tired or

writing the same old boring Perl 5 OO code, and drooling over Perl 6 OO. So
instead of switching to Ruby, I wrote Moose :)
Unless specified with C<extends>, any class which uses Moose will
inherit from L<Moose::Object>.

-are defined with C<has>. And assuming that you call C<new>, which is
-inherited from L<Moose::Object>, then this includes properly initializing
-all instance slots, setting defaults where appropriate, and performing any
-type constraint checking or coercion.

This will apply a given set of C<@roles> to the local class. Role support
is currently under heavy development; see L<Moose::Role> for more details.
-=item B<has ($name, %options)>

This will install an attribute of a given C<$name> into the current class.

+The C<%options> are the same as those provided by
L<Class::MOP::Attribute>, in addition to the list below which are provided
by Moose (L<Moose::Meta::Attribute> to be more specific):
only). These will create either a read/write accessor or a read-only
accessor respectively, using the same name as the C<$name> of the attribute.
-If you need more control over how your accessors are named, you can use the
-I<reader>, I<writer> and I<accessor> options inherited from L<Class::MOP::Attribute>.
+If you need more control over how your accessors are named, you can use the
+I<reader>, I<writer> and I<accessor> options inherited from

=item I<isa =E<gt> $type_name>
The I<isa> option uses Moose's type constraint facilities to set up runtime
type checking for this attribute. Moose will perform the checks during class
construction, and within any accessors. The C<$type_name> argument must be a
-string. The string can be either a class name or a type defined using
+string. The string may be either a class name or a type defined using
Moose's type definition features.
=item I<coerce =E<gt> (1|0)>
This will attempt to use coercion with the supplied type constraint to change
the value passed into any accessors or constructors. You B<must> have supplied
a type constraint in order for this to work. See L<Moose::Cookbook::Recipe5>
-for an example usage.

=item I<does =E<gt> $role_name>

+This is only legal if your C<isa> option is either C<ArrayRef> or C<HashRef>.
+
+=item I<metaclass =E<gt> $metaclass_name>
+
+This tells the class to use a custom attribute metaclass for this particular
+attribute. Custom attribute metaclasses are useful for extending the
+capabilities of the I<has> keyword: they are the simplest way to extend the MOP,
+but they are still a fairly advanced topic and too much to cover here. I will
+try and write a recipe on them soon.
+
+The default behavior here is to just load C<$metaclass_name>; however, we also
+have a way to alias to a shorter name. This will first look to see if
+B<Moose::Meta::Attribute::Custom::$metaclass_name> exists. If it does, Moose
+will then check to see if that has the method C<register_implemenetation>, which
+should return the actual name of the custom attribute metaclass. If there is no
+C<register_implemenetation> method, it will fall back to using
+B<Moose::Meta::Attribute::Custom::$metaclass_name> as the metaclass name.

+and can typically be ignored). You B<cannot> have a trigger on a read-only
+attribute.
+
+=item I<handles =E<gt> ARRAY | HASH | REGEXP | ROLE | CODE>
+
+The I<handles> option provides Moose classes with automated delegation features.
+This is a pretty complex and powerful option. It accepts many different option
+formats, each with its own benefits and drawbacks.
+
+B<NOTE:> This feature is no longer experimental, but it may still have subtle
+bugs lurking in the deeper corners. If you think you have found a bug, you
+probably have, so please report it to me right away.
+
+B<NOTE:> The class being delegated to does not need to be a Moose based class,
+which is why this feature is especially useful when wrapping non-Moose classes.
+
+All I<handles> option formats share the following traits:
+
+You cannot override a locally defined method with a delegated method; an
+exception will be thrown if you try. That is to say, if you define C<foo> in
+your class, you cannot override it with a delegated C<foo>. This is almost never
+something you would want to do, and if it is, you should do it by hand and not
+use Moose.
+
+You cannot override any of the methods found in Moose::Object, or the C<BUILD>
+and C<DEMOLISH> methods. These will not throw an exception, but will silently
+move on to the next method in the list. My reasoning for this is that you would
+almost never want to do this, since it usually breaks your class. As with
+overriding locally defined methods, if you do want to do this, you should do it
+manually, not with Moose.
+
+Below is the documentation for each option format:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item C<ARRAY>
+
+This is the most common usage for I<handles>. You basically pass a list of
+method names to be delegated, and Moose will install a delegation method
+for each one.
+
+=item C<HASH>
+
+This is the second most common usage for I<handles>. Instead of a list of
+method names, you pass a HASH ref where each key is the method name you
+want installed locally, and its value is the name of the original method
+in the class being delegated to.
+
+This can be very useful for recursive classes like trees. Here is a
+quick example (soon to be expanded into a Moose::Cookbook::Recipe):
+
+ package Tree;
+ use Moose;
+
+ has 'node' => (is => 'rw', isa => 'Any');
+
+ has 'children' => (
+ is => 'ro',
+ isa => 'ArrayRef',
+ default => sub { [] }
+ );
+
+ has 'parent' => (
+ is => 'rw',
+ isa => 'Tree',
+ is_weak_ref => 1,
+ handles => {
+ parent_node => 'node',
+ siblings => 'children',
+ }
+ );
+
+In this example, the Tree package gets C<parent_node> and C<siblings> methods,
+which delegate to the C<node> and C<children> methods (respectively) of the Tree
+instance stored in the C<parent> slot.
+
+=item C<REGEXP>
+
+The regexp option works very similar to the ARRAY option, except that it builds
+the list of methods for you. It starts by collecting all possible methods of the
+class being delegated to, then filters that list using the regexp supplied here.
+
+B<NOTE:> An I<isa> option is required when using the regexp option format. This
+is so that we can determine (at compile time) the method list from the class.
+Without an I<isa> this is just not possible.
+
+=item C<ROLE>
+
+With the role option, you specify the name of a role whose "interface" then
+becomes the list of methods to handle. The "interface" can be defined as; the
+methods of the role and any required methods of the role. It should be noted
+that this does B<not> include any method modifiers or generated attribute
+methods (which is consistent with role composition).
+
+=item C<CODE>
+
+This is the option to use when you really want to do something funky. You should
+only use it if you really know what you are doing, as it involves manual
+metaclass twiddling.
+
+This takes a code reference, which should expect two arguments. The first is the
+attribute meta-object this I<handles> is attached to. The second is the
+metaclass of the class being delegated to. It expects you to return a hash (not
+a HASH ref) of the methods you want mapped.
+
+=back
+
+=back
+
+=item B<has +$name =E<gt> %options>
-=item I<handles =E<gt> [ @handles ]>
+This is variation on the normal attibute creator C<has> which allows you to
+clone and extend an attribute from a superclass. Here is a quick example:
-There is experimental support for attribute delegation using the C<handles>
-option. More docs to come later.
+ package Foo;
+ use Moose;
+
+ has 'message' => (
+ is => 'rw',
+ isa => 'Str',
+ default => 'Hello, I am a Foo'
+ );
+
+ package My::Foo;
+ use Moose;
+
+ extends 'Foo';
+
+ has '+message' => (default => 'Hello I am My::Foo');
+
+What is happening here is that B<My::Foo> is cloning the C<message> attribute
+from its parent class B<Foo>, retaining the C<is =E<gt> 'rw'> and C<isa =E<gt>
+'Str'> characteristics, but changing the value in C<default>.
+
+This feature is restricted somewhat, so as to try and enfore at least I<some>
+sanity into it. You are only allowed to change the following attributes:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item I<default>
+
+Change the default value of an attribute.
+
+=item I<coerce>
+
+Change whether the attribute attempts to coerce a value passed to it.
+
+=item I<required>
+
+Change if the attribute is required to have a value.
+
+=item I<documentation>
+
+Change the documentation string associated with the attribute.

+
+You I<are> allowed to change the type, B<if and only if> the new type is a
+subtype of the old type.
