=head1 NAME

Class::MOP::Method - Method Meta Object

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The Method Protocol is very small, since methods in Perl 5 are just
subroutines within the particular package. We provide a very basic
introspection interface.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 Introspection

=over 4

=item B<meta>

This will return a B<Class::MOP::Class> instance which is related
to this class.

=back

=head2 Construction

=over 4

=item B<wrap ($code, %params)>

This is the basic constructor, it returns a B<Class::MOP::Method>
instance which wraps the given C<$code> reference. You can also
set the C<package_name> and C<name> attributes using the C<%params>.
If these are not set, then thier accessors will attempt to figure
it out using the C<Class::MOP::get_code_info> function.

=item B<clone (%params)>

This will make a copy of the object, allowing you to override
any values by stuffing them in C<%params>.

=back

=head2 Informational

=over 4

=item B<body>

This returns the actual CODE reference of the particular instance.

=item B<name>

This returns the name of the CODE reference.

=item B<associated_metaclass>

The metaclass of the method

=item B<package_name>

This returns the package name that the CODE reference is attached to.

=item B<fully_qualified_name>

This returns the fully qualified name of the CODE reference.

=item B<original_method>

If this method object was created as a clone of some other method
object, this returns the object that was cloned.

=item B<original_name>

This returns the original name of the CODE reference, wherever it was
first defined.

If this method is a clone of a clone (of a clone, etc.), this method
returns the name from the I<first> method in the chain of clones.

=item B<original_package_name>

This returns the original package name that the CODE reference is
attached to, wherever it was first defined.

If this method is a clone of a clone (of a clone, etc.), this method
returns the package name from the I<first> method in the chain of
clones.

=item B<original_fully_qualified_name>

This returns the original fully qualified name of the CODE reference,
wherever it was first defined.

If this method is a clone of a clone (of a clone, etc.), this method
returns the fully qualified name from the I<first> method in the chain
of clones.

=back

=head2 Metaclass

=over 4

=item B<attach_to_class>

Sets the associated metaclass

=item B<detach_from_class>

Disassociates the method from the metaclass
