Class::Maker 0.05.18

Class::Maker Perl module contains classes, reflection, schema, serialization, attribute- and multiple inheritance. SYNOPSIS use Class::Maker qw(class); class Human, { isa => [qw( ParentClass )], public => { string => [qw(name lastname)], ref => [qw(father mother)], array => [qw(friends)], custom => [qw(anything)], }, private => { int => [qw(dummy1 dummy2)], }, configure => { ctor => create, explicit => 0, }, }; sub Human::greeting : method { my $this = shift; printf This is %s (%d), $this->name, $this->uid; } class UnixUser, { isa => [qw( Human )], public => { int => [qw(uid gid)], string => [qw(username)], }, }; my $a = Human->new( uid => 1, gid => 2, name => Bart ); $a->father( Human->new( name => Houmer ) ); $a->greeting(); $a->uid = 12; $a->_dummy1( bla ); Class::Maker introduces the concept of classes via a "class" function. It automatically creates packages, ISA, new and attribute-handlers. The classes can inherit from common perl-classes and class-maker classes. Single and multiple inheritance is supported. This package is for everybody who wants to program oo-perl and does not really feel comfortable with the common way. Java-like reflection is also implemented and allows one to inspect the class properties and methods during runtime. This is helpfull for implementing persistance and serialization. A Tangram (see cpan) schema generator is included to the package, so one can use Tangram object-persistance on the fly as long as he uses Class::Maker classes..
