NAME

Class::MOP::Method - Method Meta Object

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.

METHODS

Introspection

meta
This will return a Class::MOP::Class instance which is related to this class.

Construction

wrap ($code, %params)
This is the basic constructor, it returns a Class::MOP::Method instance which wraps the given $code reference. You must also set the "package_name" and "name" attributes in %params.
clone (%params)
This will make a copy of the object, allowing you to override any values by stuffing them in %params.

Informational

body
This returns the actual CODE reference of the particular instance.
name
This returns the name of the CODE reference.
associated_metaclass
The metaclass of the method
package_name
This returns the package name that the CODE reference is attached to.
fully_qualified_name
This returns the fully qualified name of the CODE reference.
original_method
If this method object was created as a clone of some other method object, this returns the object that was cloned.
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 first method in the chain of clones.

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 first method in the chain of clones.

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 first method in the chain of clones.

Metaclass

attach_to_class
Sets the associated metaclass
detach_from_class
Disassociates the method from the metaclass

Miscellaneous

execute
Executes the method. Be sure to pass in the instance, since the method expects it.
