Alien::Role - Extend Alien::Base with roles!
version 1.59_01
package Alien::libfoo; use base qw( Alien::Base ); use Role::Tiny::With qw( with ); with 'Alien::Role::Dino'; with 'Alien::Role::Alt'; 1;
The Alien::Role namespace is intended for writing roles that can be applied to Alien::Base to extend its functionality. You could of course write subclasses that extend Alien::Base, but then you have to either stick with just one subclass or deal with multiple inheritance! It is recommended that you use Role::Tiny since it can be used on plain old Perl classes which is good since Alien::Base doesn't use anything fancy like Moose or Moo. There are two working examples that use this technique that are worth checking out in the event you are interested: Alien::Role::Dino and Alien::Role::Alt.
Alien::Role
This class itself doesn't do anything, it just documents the technique.
