NAME

Attribute::Util - Assorted general utility attributes

SYNOPSIS

  # makes all attributes available
  use  Attribute::Util;

  # or you can load individual attributes 
  use Attribute::Util qw(Memoize SigHandler);

DESCRIPTION

When used without argument, this module provides four universally accessible attributes of general interest as follows:

Abstract

See Attribute::Abstract.

Alias

See Attribute::Alias.

Memoize

See Attribute::Memoize.

Method

See Attribute::Method.

SigHandler

See Attribute::SigHandler.

When used with arguments, this module acts as an attributes loader.

  use Attribute::Util qw/Memoize SigHandler/;

Is exactly the same as

  use Attribute::Memoize; use Attribute::SigHandler;

Theoretically, you can load any other attribute handlers so long as it is named Attribute::AnyThing.

BUGS

None known so far. If you find any bugs or oddities, please do inform the author.
