MooseX::Meta::TypeConstraint::Structured::Named - Structured Type Constraints
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
-Structured type constraints let you assign an internal pattern of type
-constraints to a 'container' constraint. The goal is to make it easier to
-declare constraints like "ArrayRef[Int, Int, Str]" where the constraint is an
-ArrayRef of three elements and the internal constraint on the three is Int, Int
-and Str.
+The follow is example usage:
-To accomplish this, we add an attribute to the base L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint>
-to hold a L</signature>, which is a reference to a pattern of type constraints.
-We then override L</constraint> to check our incoming value to the attribute
-against this signature pattern.

+ package_defined_in => __PACKAGE__,

+=head1 DESCRIPTION
Named structured Constraints expect the internal constraints to be in keys or
-fields similar to what we expect in a HashRef.
+fields similar to what we expect in a HashRef. Basically, this allows you to
+easily add type constraint checks against values in the wrapping HashRef
+identified by the key name.
