NAME
Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class - Class/TypeConstraint parallel hierarchy
VERSION
version 2.2011
DESCRIPTION
This class represents type constraints for a class.
INHERITANCE
"Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class" is a subclass of
Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint.
METHODS
Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class->new(%options)
This creates a new class type constraint based on the given
%options.
It takes the same options as its parent, with two exceptions. First,
it requires an additional option, "class", which is name of the
constraint's class. Second, it automatically sets the parent to the
"Object" type.
The constructor also overrides the hand optimized type constraint with
one it creates internally.
$constraint->class
Returns the class name associated with the constraint.
$constraint->parents
Returns all the type's parent types, corresponding to its parent
classes.
$constraint->is_subtype_of($type_name_or_object)
If the given type is also a class type, then this checks that the
type's class is a subclass of the other type's class.
Otherwise it falls back to the implementation in
Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint.
$constraint->create_child_type(%options)
This returns a new Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint object with the type
as its parent.
Note that it does not return a
"Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Class" object!
$constraint->get_message($value)
This is the same as ``get_message'' in Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint except
that it explicitly says
"isa" was checked. This is to help users deal
with accidentally autovivified type constraints.
