MooseX::Role::WithOverloading - (DEPRECATED) Roles which support overloading
version 0.17
package MyRole; use MooseX::Role::WithOverloading; use overload q{""} => 'as_string', fallback => 1; has message => ( is => 'rw', isa => 'Str', ); sub as_string { shift->message } package MyClass; use Moose; use namespace::autoclean; with 'MyRole'; package main; my $i = MyClass->new( message => 'foobar' ); print $i; # Prints 'foobar'
MooseX::Role::WithOverloading allows you to write a Moose::Role which defines overloaded operators and allows those overload methods to be composed into the classes/roles/instances it's compiled to, where plain Moose::Roles would lose the overloading.
Starting with Moose version 2.1300, this module is no longer necessary, as the functionality is available already. In that case, use MooseX::Role::WithOverloading behaves identically to use Moose::Role.
use MooseX::Role::WithOverloading
use Moose::Role
This module is marked as deprecated, as starting with Moose version 2.1300, the functionality provided here is now built-in to Moose. You only need to use this module if you are using an older Moose (but please upgrade!).
