dtRdr::Traits::Class - shared OO stuff
Imported into base class. Gives a nicer message than the standard "Can't locate method...", indicating that you did not typo the method name, but instead forgot to override it.
sub virtual_method {my $self = shift; $self->NOT_IMPLEMENTED(@_);}
Is the shorter, less readable version worthwhile?
sub virtual_method { $_[0]->NOT_IMPLEMENTED(@_[1..$#_]);}
This should be safe for subclasses to override and/or call as ->SUPER::. This gives you something like an AUTOLOAD (though you would have to get (caller(1))[3] yourself) without having to also do can(), but that's untested...
Same as NOT_IMPLEMENTED(), but just a warning. Returns undef.
$self->WARN_NOT_IMPLEMENTED;
Assumes a hash-based object. Creates a copy (with only one level of dereference) and blesses it into Package.
$object = Package->claim($object);
