Paket: libmeta-perl (0.012-1) [debports]

meta-programming API

This package provides an API for metaprogramming; that is, allowing code to inspect or manipulate parts of its own program structure. Parts of the perl interpreter itself can be accessed by means of "meta"-objects provided by this package. Methods on these objects allow inspection of details, as well as creating new items or removing existing ones.

The intention of this API is to provide a nicer replacement for existing tricks such as no strict 'refs' and using globrefs, and also to be a more consistent place to add new abilities, such as more APIs for inspection and alteration of internal structures, metaprogramming around the new 'class' feature, and other such uses.

meta should be considered experimental; no API stability guarantees are made at this time. Behaviour may be added, altered, or removed in later versions.
