NAME

Type::Constraint::ObjectIsa - A class for constraints which require an object that inherits from a specific class

VERSION

version 0.05

SYNOPSIS

  my $type = Type::Constraint::ObjectIsa->new(...);
  print $type->class();

DESCRIPTION

This is a specialized type constraint class for types which require an object that inherits from a specific class.

API

This class provides all of the same methods as Type::Constraint::Simple, with a few differences:

Type::Constraint::ObjectIsa->new( ... )

The parent parameter is ignored if it passed, as it is always set to the Defined type.

The inline_generator and constraint parameters are also ignored. This class provides its own default inline generator subroutine reference.

This class overrides the message_generator default if none is provided.

Finally, this class requires an additional parameter, class. This must be a single class name.

$object_isa->class()

Returns the class name passed to the constructor.

ROLES

This class does the Type::Constraint::Role::IsaType, Type::Constraint::Role::Interface, Type::Role::Inlinable, and MooseX::Clone roles.
