Moose::Object - The base object for Moose

NAME

Moose::Object - The base object for Moose

DESCRIPTION

This serves as the base object for all Moose classes. Every effort will be made to ensure that all classes which use Moose will inherit from this class. It provides a default constructor and destructor, which run all the BUILD and DEMOLISH methods in the class tree.

You don't actually need to inherit from this in order to use Moose though. It is just here to make life easier.

METHODS

meta
This will return the metaclass associated with the given class.

new
This will create a new instance and call BUILDALL.

BUILDALL
This will call every BUILD method in the inheritance hierarchy, and pass it a hash-ref of the the %params passed to new.

DEMOLISHALL
This will call every DEMOLISH method in the inheritance hierarchy.

does ($role_name)
This will check if the invocant's class does a given $role_name. This is similar to isa for object, but it checks the roles instead.

dump ($maxdepth)
Cmon, how many times have you written the following code while debugging: 
 use Data::Dumper; 
 warn Dumper $obj;

It can get seriously annoying, so why not just use this.

BUGS
