=head1 SYNOPSIS
NOTE: Most methods in this class require a variable specification that includes
a sigil. If this sigil is absent, it is assumed to represent the IO slot.
-=head1 METHODS
-
-=cut
-
-=head2 new $package_name
+=method new $package_name
Creates a new C<Package::Stash> object, for the package given as the only
argument.
sub new {
my $class = shift;
- my ($namespace) = @_;
- return bless { 'package' => $namespace }, $class;
+ my ($package) = @_;
+ my $namespace;
+ {
+ no strict 'refs';
+ # supposedly this caused a bug in earlier perls, but I can't reproduce
+ # it, so re-enabling the caching
+ $namespace = \%{$package . '::'};
+ }
+ return bless {
+ 'package' => $package,
+ 'namespace' => $namespace,
+ }, $class;
}
-=head2 name
+=method name
Returns the name of the package that this object represents.
return $_[0]->{package};
}
-=head2 namespace
+=method namespace
Returns the raw stash itself.
=cut
sub namespace {
- # NOTE:
- # because of issues with the Perl API
- # to the typeglob in some versions, we
- # need to just always grab a new
- # reference to the hash here. Ideally
- # we could just store a ref and it would
- # Just Work, but oh well :\
- no strict 'refs';
- return \%{$_[0]->name . '::'};
+ return $_[0]->{namespace};
}
{
}
}
-=head2 add_package_symbol $variable $value %opts
+=method add_package_symbol $variable $value %opts
Adds a new package symbol, for the symbol given as C<$variable>, and optionally
gives it an initial value of C<$value>. C<$variable> should be the name of
*{$pkg . '::' . $name} = ref $initial_value ? $initial_value : \$initial_value;
}
-=head2 remove_package_glob $name
+=method remove_package_glob $name
Removes all package variables with the given name, regardless of sigil.
# ... these functions deal with stuff on the namespace level
-=head2 has_package_symbol $variable
+=method has_package_symbol $variable
Returns whether or not the given package variable (including sigil) exists.

Returns the value of the given package variable (including sigil).
