NAME

Package::Stash::PP - Pure perl implementation of the Package::Stash API

version 0.39

  use Package::Stash;

This is a backend for Package::Stash implemented in pure perl, for those without a compiler or who would like to use this inline in scripts.

•: remove_symbol also replaces the associated typeglob
This can cause unexpected behavior when doing manipulation at compile time - removing subroutines will still allow them to be called from within the package as subroutines (although they will not be available as methods). This can be considered a feature in some cases (this is how namespace::clean works, for instance), but should not be relied upon - use "remove_glob" directly if you want this behavior.
•: Some minor memory leaks
The pure perl implementation has a couple minor memory leaks (see the TODO tests in t/20-leaks.t) that I'm having a hard time tracking down - these may be core perl bugs, it's hard to tell.

Mostly copied from code from Class::MOP::Package, by Stevan Little and the Moose Cabal.
