pkgsrc/devel/p5-Attribute-Handlers/DESCR

This module, when inherited by a package, allows that package's
class to define attribute handler subroutines for specific attributes.
Variables and subroutines subsequently defined in that package, or
in packages derived from that package may be given attributes with
the same names as the attribute handler subroutines, which will
then be called in one of the compilation phases (i.e. in a BEGIN,
CHECK, INIT, or END block).
Updated to Attribute-Handlers-0.77 - Updated master_sites Changes : - Attribute::Handlers now is core. - Brought up to date with perl 5.8RC1 version will be 5.8 if no more changes come in - [#13686] This changes the behaviour of lexical attributes. Prior to this lexical attributes were done at a compile time, and they would loose their attribute on the next run over them. Now perl 5.8 calls the attribute handler runtime whenever it hits my. - [#14448] Fixes cases with too high refcounts on lexical attributes - [#15945] Do not warn about too late CHECK and INIT block if A::H is pulled in using a require. 2002-06-10 04:35:49 +02:00			`This module, when inherited by a package, allows that package's`
