-Will also initialize the %FIELDS hash if one of the base classes has

-pragma will croak if multiple base classes have a %FIELDS hash. See
-L<fields> for a description of this feature.
+Will also initialize the fields if one of the base classes has it.
+Multiple Inheritence of fields is B<NOT> supported, if two or more
+base classes each have inheritable fields the 'base' pragma will
+croak. See L<fields>, L<public> and L<protected> for a description of
+this feature.
When strict 'vars' is in scope, I<base> also lets you assign to @ISA
without having to declare @ISA with the 'vars' pragma first.
loading it, I<base> will define $VERSION in the base package, setting it to
the string C<-1, set by base.pm>.

-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-The C<fields> pragma enables compile-time verified class fields.
-
-NOTE: The current implementation keeps the declared fields in the %FIELDS
-hash of the calling package, but this may change in future versions.
-Do B<not> update the %FIELDS hash directly, because it must be created
-at compile-time for it to be fully useful, as is done by this pragma.
-
-The related C<base> pragma will combine fields from base classes and any
-fields declared using the C<fields> pragma. This enables field
-inheritance to work properly.
-
-Field names that start with an underscore character are made private to
-the class and are not visible to subclasses. Inherited fields can be
-overridden but will generate a warning if used together with the C<-w>
-switch.
-
-The following functions are supported:
-
-=over 8
-
-=item new
-
-fields::new() creates and blesses a restricted-hash comprised of the
-fields declared using the C<fields> pragma into the specified class.
-This makes it possible to write a constructor like this:
-
- package Critter::Sounds;
- use fields qw(cat dog bird);
-
- sub new {
- my $self = shift;
- $self = fields::new($self) unless ref $self;
- $self->{cat} = 'meow'; # scalar element
- @$self{'dog','bird'} = ('bark','tweet'); # slice
- return $self;
- }
-
-=item phash
-
-Pseudo-hashes have been removed from Perl as of 5.10. Consider using
-restricted hashes instead. Using fields::phash() will cause an error.

+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The C<fields> pragma enables compile-time verified class fields.
+
+NOTE: The current implementation keeps the declared fields in the %FIELDS
+hash of the calling package, but this may change in future versions.
+Do B<not> update the %FIELDS hash directly, because it must be created
+at compile-time for it to be fully useful, as is done by this pragma.
+
+ Only valid for perl before 5.9.0:
+
+ If a typed lexical variable holding a reference is used to access a
+ hash element and a package with the same name as the type has
+ declared class fields using this pragma, then the operation is
+ turned into an array access at compile time.
+
+
+The related C<base> pragma will combine fields from base classes and any
+fields declared using the C<fields> pragma. This enables field
+inheritance to work properly.
+
+Field names that start with an underscore character are made private to
+the class and are not visible to subclasses. Inherited fields can be
+overridden but will generate a warning if used together with the C<-w>
+switch.
+
+ Only valid for perls before 5.9.0:
+
+ The effect of all this is that you can have objects with named
+ fields which are as compact and as fast arrays to access. This only
+ works as long as the objects are accessed through properly typed
+ variables. If the objects are not typed, access is only checked at
+ run time.
+
+
+
+The following functions are supported:
+
+=over 8
+
+=item new
+
+B< perl before 5.9.0: > fields::new() creates and blesses a
+pseudo-hash comprised of the fields declared using the C<fields>
+pragma into the specified class.
+
+B< perl 5.9.0 and higher: > fields::new() creates and blesses a
+restricted-hash comprised of the fields declared using the C<fields>
+pragma into the specified class.
+
+
+This makes it possible to write a constructor like this:
+
+ package Critter::Sounds;
+ use fields qw(cat dog bird);
+
+ sub new {
+ my $self = shift;
+ $self = fields::new($self) unless ref $self;
+ $self->{cat} = 'meow'; # scalar element
+ @$self{'dog','bird'} = ('bark','tweet'); # slice
+ return $self;
+ }
+
+=item phash
+
+B< before perl 5.9.0: >
+
+ fields::phash() can be used to create and initialize a plain (unblessed)
+ pseudo-hash. This function should always be used instead of creating
+ pseudo-hashes directly.
+
+ If the first argument is a reference to an array, the pseudo-hash will
+ be created with keys from that array. If a second argument is supplied,
+ it must also be a reference to an array whose elements will be used as
+ the values. If the second array contains less elements than the first,
+ the trailing elements of the pseudo-hash will not be initialized.
+ This makes it particularly useful for creating a pseudo-hash from
+ subroutine arguments:
+
+ sub dogtag {
+ my $tag = fields::phash([qw(name rank ser_num)], [@_]);
+ }
+
+ fields::phash() also accepts a list of key-value pairs that will
+ be used to construct the pseudo hash. Examples:
+
+ my $tag = fields::phash(name => "Joe",
+ rank => "captain",
+ ser_num => 42);
+
+ my $pseudohash = fields::phash(%args);
+
+B< perl 5.9.0 and higher: >
+
+Pseudo-hashes have been removed from Perl as of 5.10. Consider using
+restricted hashes instead. Using fields::phash() will cause an error.
