MakeMe...:Global(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to MakeMe...:Global(3pm) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation — aka Class::MakeMethods::Template::Global — and its whole thing is: Method that are not instance-dependent. periodt. ✨

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

package MyObject;
use Class::MakeMethods::Template::Global (
  scalar          => [ 'foo' ]
);

package main;

MyObject->foo('bar')
print MyObject->foo();
...
print $my_instance->foo(); # same thing

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so these meta-methods access values that are shared across all instances of your object in your process. fr fr. For example, a hash_scalar meta-method will be able to store a different value for each hash instance you call it on, but a static_scalar meta-method will return the same value for any instance it's called on, and setting it from any instance will change the value that all other instances see. that’s the whole plot twist 😭

🎀 Common Parameters 🎀

The following parameters are defined for Static meta-methods:

• data — the shared value.

✨ Standard Methods ✨

The following methods from Generic should be supported:

scalar
string
number
