-=item * C<< is => 'ro', 'rw', 'bare' >>
+=item C<< is => 'ro', 'rw', 'bare' >>
This provides a shorthand for specifying the C<reader>, C<writer>, or
C<accessor> names. If the attribute is read-only ('ro') then it will
Moose will issue a deprecation warning when this attribute is added to a
metaclass.
-=item * C<< isa => Type >>
+=item C<< isa => Type >>
This option accepts a type. The type can be a string, which should be
a type name. If the type name is unknown, it is assumed to be a class
be a class name, and that class must do the role specified with
C<does>.
-=item * C<< does => Role >>
+=item C<< does => Role >>
This is short-hand for saying that the attribute's type must be an
object which does the named role.
B<This option is not yet supported.>
-=item * C<< coerce => Bool >>
+=item C<< coerce => Bool >>
This option is only valid for objects with a type constraint
(C<isa>). If this is true, then coercions will be applied whenever
You can make both this and the C<weak_ref> option true.
-=item * C<< trigger => CodeRef >>
+=item C<< trigger => CodeRef >>
This option accepts a subroutine reference, which will be called after
the attribute is set.
-=item * C<< required => Bool >>
+=item C<< required => Bool >>
An attribute which is required must be provided to the constructor. An
attribute which is required can also have a C<default> or C<builder>,
A required attribute must have a C<default>, C<builder> or a
non-C<undef> C<init_arg>
-=item * C<< lazy => Bool >>
+=item C<< lazy => Bool >>
A lazy attribute must have a C<default> or C<builder>. When an
attribute is lazy, the default value will not be calculated until the
attribute is read.
-=item * C<< weak_ref => Bool >>
+=item C<< weak_ref => Bool >>
If this is true, the attribute's value will be stored as a weak
reference.
-=item * C<< auto_deref => Bool >>
+=item C<< auto_deref => Bool >>
If this is true, then the reader will dereference the value when it is
called. The attribute must have a type constraint which defines the
attribute as an array or hash reference.
-=item * C<< lazy_build => Bool >>
+=item C<< lazy_build => Bool >>
Setting this to true makes the attribute lazy and provides a number of
default methods.

+Associates a method with the attribute. Typically, this is called internally

+Currently the argument I<Method> is ignored in Mouse.

Checks that the given value passes this attribute's type constraint. Returns C<true>
