Sorry. Pressed send by accident: Let me complete my thought.
What I want to do provide a consuming class with a
a) a meta-attribute (via a trait, 'My::MetaAttribute::Role' )
b) methods to the meta-class. ( My::MetaClass::Role' ).
I think the answer is to use Moose::Exporter and/or
Moose::Util::MetaRole::apply_
metaroles. This doesn't work, but something like:
package My::Role
use Moose::Role;
Moose::Exporter->setup_import_methods(
also => 'Moose',
class_metaroles => {
attribute => ['My::MetaAttribute::Role'],
class => ['My::MetaClass::Role'],
},
)
I don't think this works for a variety of reason including the fact that
Moose::Exporter doesn't work when roles are consumed ... at least I think it
doesn't. Am I correct in believing that you cannot use Moose::Exporter or
Moose::Util::MetaRole::apply_metarolse to work properly from a role?
Second, if I flip this to a class ( i.e. use Moose ), am I supposed to fuss
with defining an init_meta or will Moose Exporter see that I want
My::MetaAttribute::Role and My::MetaClass::Role installed and DWIM. I think
this is the case, but I can't get it to work.
Am I mistaken?
Warmest Regards,
Chris
ps. I will shortly send some example code but wanted to get this to the list
to cover my being a boob about pressing send to quickly.
