33 | MRO::Compat - Partial mro::* interface compatibility for Perls < 5.9.5 |

49 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
50 | |
51 | The "mro" namespace provides several utilities for dealing |
399a1dc7 |
52 | with method resolution order and method caching in general |
53 | in Perl 5.9.5 and higher. |
4c4e4170 |
54 | |
399a1dc7 |
55 | This module provides a subset of those interfaces for |
56 | earlier versions of Perl. It is a harmless no-op to use |
57 | it on 5.9.5+. If you're writing a piece of software |
58 | that would like to use the parts of 5.9.5+'s mro:: |
59 | interfaces that are supported here, and you want |
60 | compatibility with older Perls, this is the module |
61 | for you. |
4c4e4170 |
62 | |
399a1dc7 |
63 | This module never exports any functions. All calls must |
64 | be fully qualified with the C<mro::> prefix. |

67 | |
68 | =head2 mro::get_linear_isa($classname[, $type]) |
69 | |
70 | Returns an arrayref which is the linearized MRO of the given class. |
71 | Uses whichever MRO is currently in effect for that class by default, |
72 | or the given MRO (either C<c3> or C<dfs> if specified as C<$type>). |
73 | |
74 | The linearized MRO of a class is a single ordered list of all of the |
75 | classes that would be visited in the process of resolving a method |
76 | on the given class, starting with itself. It does not include any |
77 | duplicate entries. |
78 | |
399a1dc7 |
79 | On pre-5.9.5 Perls with MRO::Compat, explicitly asking for the C<c3> |
80 | MRO of a class will die if L<Class::C3> is not installed. If |
81 | L<Class::C3> is installed, it will detect C3 classes and return the |
82 | correct C3 MRO unless explicitly asked to return the C<dfs> MRO. |
4c4e4170 |
83 | |
84 | Note that C<UNIVERSAL> (and any members of C<UNIVERSAL>'s MRO) are not |
85 | part of the MRO of a class, even though all classes implicitly inherit |
86 | methods from C<UNIVERSAL> and its parents. |

173 | |
174 | Any class for which this function returns true is |

210 | pre-5.9.5 Perls have no other way to do this. It will still |
