NAME

Data::Object

ABSTRACT

Object-Orientation for Perl 5

SYNOPSIS

package main;

use Data::Object;

my $array = Array [1..4];

# my $iterator = $array->iterator;

# $iterator->next; # 1

DESCRIPTION

This package automatically exports and provides constructor functions for creating chainable data type objects from raw Perl data types.

LIBRARIES

This package uses type constraints from:

Data::Object::Types
