MooseX...:Object(3pm)

💖 MooseX::GlobRef::Object 💖

okay bestie, buckle up, because this is a 3pm page — yep, User Contributed Perl Documentation, the real ones know — and we're about to talk about MooseX::GlobRef::Object, which is literally a way to store a Moose object in a glob reference 🦋

---

✨ NAME ✨

MooseX::GlobRef::Object — store a Moose object in a glob reference 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

the vibe is: you make your own package, you use Moose, and then you extend both this thing and a real filehandle class. like this:

package My::IO::File;

use Moose;

extends 'MooseX::GlobRef::Object', 'IO::File';

slay. that's it. that's the whole move 💅

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so, real talk: this class extends Moose::Object with MooseX::GlobRef::Role::Object. iconic behaviour, no notes.

⚠️ but here's the tea, bestie — this class is obsoleted by MooseX::GlobRef::Role::Object. it's only still here for backward compatibility reasons, like that one group chat nobody leaves. the MooseX::GlobRef package is the one you should actually be using instead. periodt. 💀

---

🧚 INHERITANCE 🧚

the family tree, and it's giving main character energy:

• extends Moose::Object 👑
• with MooseX::GlobRef::Role::Object 🫶

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈
