This module makes it much easier to make a module have a hybrid object/method interface similar to the one of CGI.pm. You can take any old module that has an object- oriented interface and convert it to have a hybrid interface by simply adding "use b...

This module can be used to create objects from *CSV* files, or to create *CSV* files from objects. Text::CSV_XS is used for parsing and creating *CSV* file lines, so any limitations in Text::CSV_XS will of course be inherant in this module. EXPORT No...

This package is for everybody who wants to program oo-perl and does not really feel comfortable with the common way. Class::Maker introduces the concept of classes via a "class" function. It automatically creates packages, ISA, new and attribute-hand...

The Injection class is a elegant way to manipulate existing classes without editing them. It is done during runtime. It is a good way to write plugins without creating special plugins technologies....

This is a simple, safe and streamlined toolkit for building inside-out objects. Unlike most other inside-out object building modules already on CPAN, this module aims for minimalism and robustness: * Does not require derived classes to subclass it * ...

This is the "Class::Singleton" module. A Singleton describes an object class that can have only one instance in any system. An example of a Singleton might be a print spooler or system registry. This module implements a Singleton class from which oth...

Class::Inspector allows you to get information about a loaded class. Most or all of this information can be found in other ways, but they aren't always very friendly, and usually involve a relatively high level of Perl wizardry, or strange and unusua...

Decorator objects allow additional functionality to be dynamically added to objects. In this implementation, the user can supply two subroutine references (pre and post) to be performed before (pre) and after (post) any method call to an object (obj)...

Note: Documentation is incomplete, partly outdated, of poor style and full of typos. I need a ghostwriter. Class::CompiledC creates classes which are based on C structs, it does this by generating C code and compiling the code when your module is com...

This is yet another module that generates standard 'get' and 'set' methods for Perl classes. It also handles initialization of object and class data from parameter lists or defaults, and arranges for object creation and initialization to occur in top...

This module implements a minimal lightweight exception object. It is meant to be a compromise between more basic solutions like Carp which can only print information and cannot handle exception objects, and more more complex solutions like Exception:...

This module provides a subset of the functionality of Damian Conway's lovely Class::Delegation module. Why a subset? Well, I didn't need all of the fancy matching semantics, just string string specifications to map delegations. Furthermore, I wanted ...

Class::Agreement is an implementation of behavioral contracts for Perl5. This module allows you to easily add pre- and postconditions to new or existing Perl classes. This module provides contracts such as dependent contracts, contracts for higher-or...

Class::DataStore implements a simple storage system for object data. This data can be accessed via get/set methods and AUTOLOAD. AUTOLOAD calls are not added to the symbol table, so using get/set will be faster. Using AUTOLOAD also means that you wil...

Its possible to accidentally inherit an AUTOLOAD method. Often this will happen if a class somewhere in the chain uses AutoLoader or defines one of their own. This can lead to confusing error messages when method lookups fail. Sometimes you want to a...

This package creates instance variables and methods on a class for accessing and manipulating those instance variables. "Class::Methodist" is similar in spirit to "Class::MakeMethods", but with a simpler interface and more sensible semantics. Instanc...

This class makes your class (sub class of Class::Pluggable) pluggable. In this documentatin, the word "pluggable" has two meanings. One is just simply adding new method to your pluggable classs from other plugin modules. So, after you plugged some mo...

Class::ConfigMgr is a base class for implementing a singleton object configuration manager. This module is based off of the configuration manager found in Movable Type and a limited subset of AppConfig configuration files....

This class facilitates building frameworks of several classes that inter-operate. It was first designed and built for "HTML::Mason", in which the Compiler, Lexer, Interpreter, Resolver, Component, Buffer, and several other objects must create each ot...
