Class::...d::Meta(3)

💖 Class::MOP::Method::Meta — the manual, but make it cute 💖

okay so this page lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual, bestie — you'd pull it up as Class::...d::Meta(3). Yes the name is doing a little truncation moment, that's just how it renders in the header. We move. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

Class::MOP::Method::Meta — the Method Meta Object for "meta" methods. literally what it says on the tin, no cap. 👑

---

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 2.4000 — that's the one, that's the vibe check. ✅

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

So here's the tea: this is a Class::MOP::Method subclass, and what it represents is "meta" methods — the ones that Class::MOP installs into classes. That's it. That's the whole job. She's a specialist, she's focused, she's giving main character energy for one very specific task. 💅

---

🔥 METHODS 🔥

• Class::MOP::Method::Wrapped->wrap($metamethod, %options) — bestie this is the constructor. It takes a Class::MOP::Method object plus a hash of options. Now listen: the options it accepts are identical to the ones Class::MOP::Method accepts, with exactly one exception — you cannot pass "body", because it gets generated automatically for you. So don't try it. She said no. 🙈
