Class::MakeMethods::Template::ClassInherit - Overridable class data
package MyClass;
use Class::MakeMethods( 'Template::ClassInherit:scalar' => 'foo' ); # We now have an accessor method for an "inheritable" scalar value
package main;
MyClass->foo( 'Foozle' ); # Set a class-wide value print MyClass->foo(); # Retrieve class-wide value ...
package MySubClass; @ISA = 'MyClass';
print MySubClass->foo(); # Intially same as superclass,
MySubClass->foo('Foobar'); # but overridable per subclass/
The MakeMethods subclass provides accessor methods that search an inheritance tree to find a value. This allows you to set a shared or default value for a given class, and optionally override it in a subclass.
Creates methods to handle a scalar variable in the declaring package.
See the documentation on Generic:scalar for interfaces and behaviors.
Creates methods to handle a array variable in the declaring package.
See the documentation on Generic:array for interfaces and behaviors.
Creates methods to handle a hash variable in the declaring package.
See the documentation on Generic:hash for interfaces and behaviors.
If you just need scalar accessors, see the Class::Data::Inheritable manpage for a very elegant and efficient implementation.
See the Class::MakeMethods::Template::Generic manpage for information about the various accessor interfaces subclassed herein.
See the Class::MakeMethods::ReadMe manpage for distribution and support information.
