652 | =head1 NAME |
94b19069 |
653 | |
654 | Class::MOP - A Meta Object Protocol for Perl 5 |
655 | |
94b19069 |
656 | =head1 DESCRIPTON |
657 | |
127d39a7 |
658 | This module is a fully functioning meta object protocol for the |
1d68af04 |
659 | Perl 5 object system. It makes no attempt to change the behavior or |
660 | characteristics of the Perl 5 object system, only to create a |
27e31eaf |
661 | protocol for its manipulation and introspection. |
94b19069 |
662 | |
1d68af04 |
663 | That said, it does attempt to create the tools for building a rich |
664 | set of extensions to the Perl 5 object system. Every attempt has been |
665 | made for these tools to keep to the spirit of the Perl 5 object |
94b19069 |
666 | system that we all know and love. |
667 | |
1d68af04 |
668 | This documentation is admittedly sparse on details, as time permits |
669 | I will try to improve them. For now, I suggest looking at the items |
670 | listed in the L<SEE ALSO> section for more information. In particular |
671 | the book "The Art of the Meta Object Protocol" was very influential |
40483095 |
672 | in the development of this system. |
673 | |
bfe4d0fc |
674 | =head2 What is a Meta Object Protocol? |
675 | |
1d68af04 |
676 | A meta object protocol is an API to an object system. |
bfe4d0fc |
677 | |
1d68af04 |
678 | To be more specific, it is a set of abstractions of the components of |
679 | an object system (typically things like; classes, object, methods, |
680 | object attributes, etc.). These abstractions can then be used to both |
bfe4d0fc |
681 | inspect and manipulate the object system which they describe. |
682 | |
1d68af04 |
683 | It can be said that there are two MOPs for any object system; the |
684 | implicit MOP, and the explicit MOP. The implicit MOP handles things |
685 | like method dispatch or inheritance, which happen automatically as |
686 | part of how the object system works. The explicit MOP typically |
687 | handles the introspection/reflection features of the object system. |
688 | All object systems have implicit MOPs, without one, they would not |
689 | work. Explict MOPs however as less common, and depending on the |
690 | language can vary from restrictive (Reflection in Java or C#) to |
691 | wide open (CLOS is a perfect example). |
bfe4d0fc |
692 | |
e16da3e6 |
693 | =head2 Yet Another Class Builder!! Why? |
694 | |
1d68af04 |
695 | This is B<not> a class builder so much as it is a I<class builder |
696 | B<builder>>. My intent is that an end user does not use this module |
697 | directly, but instead this module is used by module authors to |
698 | build extensions and features onto the Perl 5 object system. |
e16da3e6 |
699 | |
94b19069 |
700 | =head2 Who is this module for? |
701 | |
1d68af04 |
702 | This module is specifically for anyone who has ever created or |
703 | wanted to create a module for the Class:: namespace. The tools which |
704 | this module will provide will hopefully make it easier to do more |
705 | complex things with Perl 5 classes by removing such barriers as |
706 | the need to hack the symbol tables, or understand the fine details |
707 | of method dispatch. |
94b19069 |
708 | |
bfe4d0fc |
709 | =head2 What changes do I have to make to use this module? |
710 | |
1d68af04 |
711 | This module was designed to be as unintrusive as possible. Many of |
712 | its features are accessible without B<any> change to your existsing |
713 | code at all. It is meant to be a compliment to your existing code and |
714 | not an intrusion on your code base. Unlike many other B<Class::> |
715 | modules, this module B<does not> require you subclass it, or even that |
716 | you C<use> it in within your module's package. |
bfe4d0fc |
717 | |
1d68af04 |
718 | The only features which requires additions to your code are the |
2eb717d5 |
719 | attribute handling and instance construction features, and these are |
1d68af04 |
720 | both completely optional features. The only reason for this is because |
721 | Perl 5's object system does not actually have these features built |
2eb717d5 |
722 | in. More information about this feature can be found below. |
bfe4d0fc |
723 | |
724 | =head2 A Note about Performance? |
725 | |
1d68af04 |
726 | It is a common misconception that explict MOPs are performance drains. |
727 | But this is not a universal truth at all, it is an side-effect of |
728 | specific implementations. For instance, using Java reflection is much |
729 | slower because the JVM cannot take advantage of any compiler |
730 | optimizations, and the JVM has to deal with much more runtime type |
731 | information as well. Reflection in C# is marginally better as it was |
732 | designed into the language and runtime (the CLR). In contrast, CLOS |
733 | (the Common Lisp Object System) was built to support an explicit MOP, |
734 | and so performance is tuned for it. |
735 | |
736 | This library in particular does it's absolute best to avoid putting |
737 | B<any> drain at all upon your code's performance. In fact, by itself |
738 | it does nothing to affect your existing code. So you only pay for |
2eb717d5 |
739 | what you actually use. |

741 | =head2 About Metaclass compatibility |
742 | |
1d68af04 |
743 | This module makes sure that all metaclasses created are both upwards |
744 | and downwards compatible. The topic of metaclass compatibility is |
745 | highly esoteric and is something only encountered when doing deep and |
746 | involved metaclass hacking. There are two basic kinds of metaclass |
747 | incompatibility; upwards and downwards. |
550d56db |
748 | |
1d68af04 |
749 | Upwards metaclass compatibility means that the metaclass of a |
750 | given class is either the same as (or a subclass of) all of the |
550d56db |
751 | class's ancestors. |
752 | |
1d68af04 |
753 | Downward metaclass compatibility means that the metaclasses of a |
754 | given class's anscestors are all either the same as (or a subclass |
550d56db |
755 | of) that metaclass. |
756 | |
1d68af04 |
757 | Here is a diagram showing a set of two classes (C<A> and C<B>) and |
758 | two metaclasses (C<Meta::A> and C<Meta::B>) which have correct |
550d56db |
759 | metaclass compatibility both upwards and downwards. |
760 | |
761 | +---------+ +---------+ |
762 | | Meta::A |<----| Meta::B | <....... (instance of ) |
1d68af04 |
763 | +---------+ +---------+ <------- (inherits from) |
550d56db |
764 | ^ ^ |
765 | : : |
766 | +---------+ +---------+ |
767 | | A |<----| B | |
768 | +---------+ +---------+ |
769 | |
1d68af04 |
770 | As I said this is a highly esoteric topic and one you will only run |
771 | into if you do a lot of subclassing of B<Class::MOP::Class>. If you |
772 | are interested in why this is an issue see the paper |
773 | I<Uniform and safe metaclass composition> linked to in the |
550d56db |
774 | L<SEE ALSO> section of this document. |
775 | |
aa448b16 |
776 | =head2 Using custom metaclasses |
777 | |
1d68af04 |
778 | Always use the metaclass pragma when using a custom metaclass, this |
779 | will ensure the proper initialization order and not accidentely |
780 | create an incorrect type of metaclass for you. This is a very rare |
781 | problem, and one which can only occur if you are doing deep metaclass |
aa448b16 |
782 | programming. So in other words, don't worry about it. |
783 | |
94b19069 |
784 | =head1 PROTOCOLS |
785 | |
127d39a7 |
786 | The protocol is divided into 4 main sub-protocols: |
94b19069 |
787 | |
788 | =over 4 |
789 | |
790 | =item The Class protocol |
791 | |
1d68af04 |
792 | This provides a means of manipulating and introspecting a Perl 5 |
793 | class. It handles all of symbol table hacking for you, and provides |
94b19069 |
794 | a rich set of methods that go beyond simple package introspection. |
795 | |

1d68af04 |
800 | This provides a consistent represenation for an attribute of a |
801 | Perl 5 class. Since there are so many ways to create and handle |
127d39a7 |
802 | attributes in Perl 5 OO, this attempts to provide as much of a |
1d68af04 |
803 | unified approach as possible, while giving the freedom and |
94b19069 |
804 | flexibility to subclass for specialization. |
805 | |

806 | See L<Class::MOP::Attribute> for more details. |
807 | |
94b19069 |
808 | =item The Method protocol |
809 | |
1d68af04 |
810 | This provides a means of manipulating and introspecting methods in |
811 | the Perl 5 object system. As with attributes, there are many ways to |
812 | approach this topic, so we try to keep it pretty basic, while still |
94b19069 |
813 | making it possible to extend the system in many ways. |
814 | |

815 | See L<Class::MOP::Method> for more details. |
94b19069 |
816 | |
127d39a7 |
817 | =item The Instance protocol |
818 | |
819 | This provides a layer of abstraction for creating object instances. |
820 | Since the other layers use this protocol, it is relatively easy to |
821 | change the type of your instances from the default HASH ref to other |
822 | types of references. Several examples are provided in the F<examples/> |
823 | directory included in this distribution. |
824 | |
825 | See L<Class::MOP::Instance> for more details. |

836 | |
837 | We set this constant depending on what version perl we are on, this |
838 | allows us to take advantage of new 5.10 features and stay backwards |
839 | compat. |
840 | |
9efe16ca |
841 | =item I<HAVE_ISAREV> |
842 | |
843 | Whether or not C<mro> provides C<get_isarev>, a much faster way to get all the |
844 | subclasses of a certain class. |

852 | =over 4 |
853 | |
854 | =item B<load_class ($class_name)> |
855 | |
1d68af04 |
856 | This will load a given C<$class_name> and if it does not have an |
448b6e55 |
857 | already initialized metaclass, then it will intialize one for it. |
127d39a7 |
858 | This function can be used in place of tricks like |
859 | C<eval "use $module"> or using C<require>. |
448b6e55 |
860 | |
861 | =item B<is_class_loaded ($class_name)> |
862 | |
1d68af04 |
863 | This will return a boolean depending on if the C<$class_name> has |
864 | been loaded. |
448b6e55 |
865 | |
1d68af04 |
866 | NOTE: This does a basic check of the symbol table to try and |
448b6e55 |
867 | determine as best it can if the C<$class_name> is loaded, it |
1d68af04 |
868 | is probably correct about 99% of the time. |

bd07fbdb |
872 | B<NOTE: DO NOT USE THIS FUNCTION, IT IS FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY!> |
873 | |
127d39a7 |
874 | This will return an integer that is managed by C<Class::MOP::Class> |
875 | to determine if a module's symbol table has been altered. |
876 | |
877 | In Perl 5.10 or greater, this flag is package specific. However in |
878 | versions prior to 5.10, this will use the C<PL_sub_generation> variable |
879 | which is not package specific. |
880 | |
e0e4674a |
881 | =item B<get_code_info ($code)> |
882 | |
bd07fbdb |
883 | B<NOTE: DO NOT USE THIS FUNCTION, IT IS FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY!> |
884 | |
127d39a7 |
885 | This function returns two values, the name of the package the C<$code> |
886 | is from and the name of the C<$code> itself. This is used by several |
887 | elements of the MOP to detemine where a given C<$code> reference is from. |
888 | |
4c105333 |
889 | =item B<subname ($name, $code)> |
890 | |
891 | B<NOTE: DO NOT USE THIS FUNCTION, IT IS FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY!> |
892 | |
893 | If possible, we will load the L<Sub::Name> module and this will function |
894 | as C<Sub::Name::subname> does, otherwise it will just return the C<$code> |
895 | argument. |
896 | |
6f49cf3f |
897 | =item B<in_global_destruction> |
898 | |
bd07fbdb |
899 | B<NOTE: DO NOT USE THIS FUNCTION, IT IS FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY!> |
900 | |
6f49cf3f |
901 | If L<Devel::GlobalDestruction> is available, this returns true under global |
902 | destruction. |
903 | |
904 | Otherwise it's a constant returning false. |

908 | =head2 Metaclass cache functions |
909 | |
1d68af04 |
910 | Class::MOP holds a cache of metaclasses, the following are functions |
911 | (B<not methods>) which can be used to access that cache. It is not |
912 | recommended that you mess with this, bad things could happen. But if |
be7677c7 |
913 | you are brave and willing to risk it, go for it. |
914 | |
915 | =over 4 |
916 | |
917 | =item B<get_all_metaclasses> |
918 | |
1d68af04 |
919 | This will return an hash of all the metaclass instances that have |
920 | been cached by B<Class::MOP::Class> keyed by the package name. |
b9d9fc0b |
921 | |
be7677c7 |
922 | =item B<get_all_metaclass_instances> |
923 | |
1d68af04 |
924 | This will return an array of all the metaclass instances that have |
b9d9fc0b |
925 | been cached by B<Class::MOP::Class>. |
926 | |
be7677c7 |
927 | =item B<get_all_metaclass_names> |
928 | |
1d68af04 |
929 | This will return an array of all the metaclass names that have |
b9d9fc0b |
930 | been cached by B<Class::MOP::Class>. |
931 | |
be7677c7 |
932 | =item B<get_metaclass_by_name ($name)> |
933 | |
127d39a7 |
934 | This will return a cached B<Class::MOP::Class> instance of nothing |
935 | if no metaclass exist by that C<$name>. |
936 | |
be7677c7 |
937 | =item B<store_metaclass_by_name ($name, $meta)> |
938 | |
127d39a7 |
939 | This will store a metaclass in the cache at the supplied C<$key>. |
940 | |
be7677c7 |
941 | =item B<weaken_metaclass ($name)> |
942 | |
127d39a7 |
943 | In rare cases it is desireable to store a weakened reference in |
944 | the metaclass cache. This function will weaken the reference to |
945 | the metaclass stored in C<$name>. |
946 | |
be7677c7 |
947 | =item B<does_metaclass_exist ($name)> |
948 | |
127d39a7 |
949 | This will return true of there exists a metaclass stored in the |
950 | C<$name> key and return false otherwise. |
951 | |
be7677c7 |
952 | =item B<remove_metaclass_by_name ($name)> |
953 | |
127d39a7 |

984 | |
1d68af04 |
985 | An excellent paper by the people who brought us the original Traits paper. |
986 | This paper is on how Traits can be used to do safe metaclass composition, |
987 | and offers an excellent introduction section which delves into the topic of |
550d56db |
988 | metaclass compatibility. |

991 | |
992 | =item Safe Metaclass Programming |
993 | |
1d68af04 |
994 | This paper seems to precede the above paper, and propose a mix-in based |
995 | approach as opposed to the Traits based approach. Both papers have similar |
996 | information on the metaclass compatibility problem space. |

1029 | |
1d68af04 |
1030 | As I have said above, this module is a class-builder-builder, so it is |
1031 | not the same thing as modules like L<Class::Accessor> and |
1032 | L<Class::MethodMaker>. That being said there are very few modules on CPAN |
1033 | with similar goals to this module. The one I have found which is most |
1034 | like this module is L<Class::Meta>, although it's philosophy and the MOP it |
1035 | creates are very different from this modules. |
