Chris Prather also posted this excellent example on use.perl based on something Dylan Hardison said recently.

role Pet::Sounds {
    method make_noise { say $self->noise }
}

class MyHouse {
    has pet => (
        does => 'Pet::Sounds',
        required => 1,
        handles =>  'Pet::Sounds',
    );
}

MyHouse->new(pet => Beetle->new())->make_noise; # I want pet provided on creation but never accessed directly after that.

In this example the attribute exists only to delegate methods and does not need an accessor.

This behaviour has bitten me a few times too, taking quite a bit of
time to find the cause of.  Is there any intention to give a default
'is' value, or raise a warning, if no access parameters are given?

Hi,

"has" doesn't create an accessor for an attribute. "is" or "accessor" does.

Could someone please explain to me what I'm doing wrong here?

   #!/usr/bin/env perl

   {
       package My::Base;
       use Moose;
       has some_method => ( default => 'foo' );
   }
   {
       package My::Class;
       use Moose;
       extends 'My::Base';
   }
   print My::Base->new->some_method;
   __END__
Can't locate object method "some_method" via package "My::Base" at
inherit.pl line 16.

Changing the some_method attribute to the following makes this go away:

   has some_method => ( is => 'rw', default => 'foo' );

(is => 'ro', default => 'foo') also works.

Is this a bug or have I misunderstood something? This is Moose 0.79 and perl, v5.8.8 built for i486-linux-gnu-thread-multi. (Also fails on Solaris,
so I doubt it's an OS issue).

If this is a bug, I'll file a report.

Cheers,
Ovid
