=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a decorator object that contains an underlying type constraint.  We use
this to control access to the type constraint and to add some features.

=head1 METHODS

This class defines the following methods.

=head2 new

Old school instantiation

=cut

sub new {
    my $proto = shift;
    if (ref($proto)) {
        return $proto->_try_delegate('new', @_);
    }
    my $class = $proto;
    if(my $arg = shift @_) {
        if(blessed $arg && $arg->isa('Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint')) {
            return bless {'__type_constraint'=>$arg}, $class;
        } elsif(
            blessed $arg &&
            $arg->isa('MooseX::Types::UndefinedType') 
          ) {
            ## stub in case we'll need to handle these types differently
            return bless {'__type_constraint'=>$arg}, $class;
        } elsif(blessed $arg) {
            __PACKAGE__->_throw_error("Argument must be ->isa('Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint') or ->isa('MooseX::Types::UndefinedType'), not ". blessed $arg);
        } else {
            __PACKAGE__->_throw_error("Argument cannot be '$arg'");
        }
    } else {
        __PACKAGE__->_throw_error("This method [new] requires a single argument.");        
    }
}

=head2 __type_constraint ($type_constraint)

Set/Get the type_constraint.

=cut

sub __type_constraint {
    my $self = shift @_;    
    if(blessed $self) {
        if(defined(my $tc = shift @_)) {
            $self->{__type_constraint} = $tc;
        }
        return $self->{__type_constraint};        
    } else {
        __PACKAGE__->_throw_error('cannot call __type_constraint as a class method');
    }
}

=head2 isa

handle $self->isa since AUTOLOAD can't - this tries both the type constraint,
and for a class type, the class.

=cut

sub isa {
  my $self = shift;
  return
    $self->__type_constraint->isa(@_)
    || $self->_try_delegate('isa', @_);
}

=head2 can

handle $self->can since AUTOLOAD can't.

=cut

sub can { shift->_try_delegate('can', @_) }

=head2 _throw_error

properly delegate error messages

=cut

sub _throw_error {
    shift;
    require Moose;
    unshift @_, 'Moose';
    goto &Moose::throw_error;
}

=head2 DESTROY

We might need it later

=cut

sub DESTROY {
    return;
}

=head2 AUTOLOAD

Delegate to the decorator target, unless this is a class type, in which
case it will try to delegate to the type object, then if that fails try
the class. The method 'new' is special cased to go to the class first
if present.

=cut

sub AUTOLOAD {
    my ($self, @args) = @_;
    my ($method) = (our $AUTOLOAD =~ /([^:]+)$/);
    
    ## We delegate with this method in an attempt to support a value of
    ## __type_constraint which is also AUTOLOADing, in particular the class
    ## MooseX::Types::UndefinedType which AUTOLOADs during autovivication.

    $self->_try_delegate($method, @args);    
}

sub _try_delegate {
    my ($self, $method, @args) = @_;
    my $tc = $self->__type_constraint;
    my $class;
    if ($tc->can('is_subtype_of')) { # Union can't
        my $search_tc = $tc;
        while (1) {
            if ($search_tc->isa('Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class')) {
                $class = $search_tc->class;
                last;
            }
            $search_tc = $search_tc->parent;
            last unless $search_tc->is_subtype_of('Object');
        }
    }
        
    my $inv = do {
      if ($tc->can($method) and $method ne 'new') {
            $tc
        } elsif ($class && $class->can($method)) {
            $class
        } else {
            $tc
        }
    };

    $inv->$method(@args);
}
