Hi, all. I have created a branch topic/strict-constructor, which does what MooseX::StrictConstructor. I think strict constructor is as useful as strict.pm, so I wonder why Moose core doesn't support it alghough MX::StrictConstructor is recommended by the docs. I think one problem is the performance, so I have reduced its overhead. According to my benchmark, my implementation is 15% slower than non-strict constructor but 30% faster than MX::StructConstructor.
The strict constructor is enabled by the 'strict_constructor' option of make_immutable: __PACKAGE__->meta->make_immutable(strict_constructor => 1); which doesn't break backward compatibility. My benchmark script is: http://gist.github.com/312001 This branch is on github: http://github.com/gfx/moose/commits/topic/strict-constructor It includes a set of tests, but the document is not yet. -- Goro Fuji (gfx)
