=head1 NAME

Class::MakeMethods::Emulator::MethodMaker - Emulate Class::MethodMaker


=head1 SYNOPSIS

  package MyObject;
  use Class::MakeMethods::Emulator::MethodMaker(
    new_with_init => 'new',
    get_set       => [ qw / foo bar baz / ];
  );

  ... OR ...

  package MyObject;
  use Class::MakeMethods::Emulator::MethodMaker '-take_namespace';
  use Class::MethodMaker (
    new_with_init => 'new',
    get_set       => [ qw / foo bar baz / ];
  );


=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides emulation of Class::MethodMaker, using the Class::MakeMethods framework.

Although originally based on Class::MethodMaker, the calling convention
for Class::MakeMethods differs in a variety of ways; most notably, the names
given to various types of methods have been changed, and the format for
specifying method attributes has been standardized. This package uses
the aliasing capability provided by Class::MakeMethods, defining methods
that modify the declaration arguments as necessary and pass them off to
various subclasses of Class::MakeMethods.


=head1 COMPATIBILITY

Full compatibility is maintained with version 1.03; some of the
changes in versions 1.04 through 1.10 are not yet included.

The test suite from Class::MethodMaker version 1.10 is included
with this package, in the t/emulator_class_methodmaker/ directory.
The unsupported tests have names ending in ".todo".

The tests are unchanged from those in the Class::MethodMaker
distribution, except for the substitution of
C in the place of
C.

In cases where earlier distributions of Class::MethodMaker contained
a different version of a test, it is also included. (Note that
version 0.92's get_concat returned '' for empty values, but in
version 0.96 this was changed to undef; this emulator follows the
later behavior. To avoid "use of undefined value" warnings from
the 0.92 version of get_concat.t, that test has been modified by
appending a new flag after the name, C<'get_concat --noundef'>,
which restores the earlier behavior.)


=head1 USAGE

There are several ways to call this emulation module:

=over 4

=item *

Direct Access

Replace occurances in your code of C with C.

=item *

Install Emulation

If you C, the Class::MethodMaker namespace will be aliased to this package, and calls to the original package will be transparently handled by this emulator.

To remove the emulation aliasing, call C.

B This affects B subsequent uses of Class::MethodMaker in your program, including those in other modules, and might cause unexpected effects.

=item *

The -sugar Option

Passing '-sugar' as the first argument in a use or import call will cause the 'methods' package to be declared as an alias to this one.

This allows you to write declarations in the following manner.

  use Class::MakeMethods::Emulator::MethodMaker '-sugar';

  make methods
    get_set => [ qw / foo bar baz / ],
    list    => [ qw / a b c / ];

B This feature is deprecated in Class::MethodMaker version 0.96 and later.

=head2 get_set

Basically equivalent to Class::MakeMethods 'Template::Hash:scalar', except that various arguments are intercepted and converted into the parallel Class::MakeMethods::Template interface declarations.

=cut

my $scalar_interface = { '*'=>'get_set', 'clear_*'=>'clear' };

sub get_set 	  {
  shift and return [
    ( ( $_[0] and $_[0] eq '-static' and shift ) ? 'Template::Static:scalar'
						 : 'Template::Hash:scalar' ),
    '-interface' => $scalar_interface,
    map {
      ( ref($_) eq 'ARRAY' )
	? ( '-interface'=>{
	  ( $_->[0] ? ( $_->[0] => 'get_set' ) : () ),
	  ( $_->[1] ? ( $_->[1] => 'clear' ) : () ),
	  ( $_->[2] ? ( $_->[2] => 'get' ) : () ),
	  ( $_->[3] ? ( $_->[3] => 'set_return' ) : () ),
	} )
	: ($_ eq '-compatibility')
	    ? ( '-interface', $scalar_interface )
	    : ($_ eq '-noclear')
		? ( '-interface', 'default' )

  '*'=>'get_concat', 'clear_*'=>'clear',
  '-params'=>{ 'join' => '', 'return_value_undefined' => undef() }
};

my $old_get_concat_interface = {

=cut

sub counter 	  { return 'Template::Hash:number --counter' }


=head1 OBJECT ACCESSORS

Basically equivalent to Class::MakeMethods 'Template::Hash:object' with an declaration that provides the "delete_x" interface. Due to a difference in expected argument syntax, the incoming arguments are revised before being delegated to Template::Hash:object.

sub object 	  {
  shift and return [
    'Template::Hash:object',
    '-interface' => $object_interface,

  while ( scalar @_ ) {
    my ($class, $list) = (shift(), shift());
    push @meta_methods, map {
      (! ref $_) ? { name=> $_, class=>$class }
 	 	 : { name=> $_->{'slot'}, class=>$class,
		    delegate=>( $_->{'forward'} || $_->{'comp_mthds'} ) }

  }
  return @meta_methods;
}


=head2 object_list

Basically equivalent to Class::MakeMethods 'Template::Hash:object_list' with an declaration that provides the relevant helper methods. Due to a difference in expected argument syntax, the incoming arguments are revised before being delegated to Template::Hash:object_list.

=cut

my $array_interface = {
  '*'=>'get_push',
  '*_set'=>'set_items', 'set_*'=>'set_items',
  map( ('*_'.$_ => $_, $_.'_*' => $_ ),
	qw( pop push unshift shift splice clear count ref index )),
};

sub object_list {

    '-interface' => $array_interface,
    _object_args(@_)
  ];
}

=head2 forward

Basically equivalent to Class::MakeMethods 'Template::Universal:forward_methods'. Due to a difference in expected argument syntax, the incoming arguments are revised before being delegated to Template::Universal:forward_methods.

  forward => [ comp => 'method1', comp2 => 'method2' ]

Define pass-through methods for certain fields.  The above defines that
method C will be handled by component C, whilst method
C will be handled by component C.

=cut

sub forward {
  my $class = shift;
  my @results;
  while ( scalar @_ ) {
    my ($comp, $method) = ( shift, shift );
    push @results, { name=> $method, target=> $comp };
  }
  [ 'forward_methods', @results ]
}



=head1 REFERENCE ACCESSORS

  'clear_*'=>'delete',
  'clear_*s'=>'delete',
  map {'*_'.$_ => $_} qw(push set keys values exists delete tally clear),
};

sub hash {

}


=head2 tie_hash

};

sub boolean 	  {
  shift and return [ 'Template::Hash:bits', '-interface' => $bits_interface, @_ ];
}


=head2 grouped_fields

Creates get/set methods like get_set but also defines a method which
returns a list of the slots in the group.

  use Class::MakeMethods::Emulator::MethodMaker
    grouped_fields => [
      some_group => [ qw / field1 field2 field3 / ],
    ];

Its argument list is parsed as a hash of group-name => field-list
pairs. Get-set methods are defined for all the fields and a method with
the name of the group is defined which returns the list of fields in the
group.

=cut

sub grouped_fields {
  my ($class, %args) = @_;
  my @methods;
  foreach (keys %args) {
    my @slots = @{ $args{$_} };

  shift and return [ 'Template::StructBuiltin:builtin_isa',

}

=head1 CONVERSION

If you wish to convert your code from use of the Class::MethodMaker emulator to direct use of Class::MakeMethods, you will need to adjust the arguments specified in your C or C calls.

Often this is simply a matter of replacing the names of aliased method-types listed below with the new equivalents.

For example, suppose that you code contained the following declaration:

  use Class::MethodMaker (
    counter => [ 'foo' ]
  );

Consulting the listings below you can find that C is an alias for C and you could thus revise your declaration to read:

  use Class::MakeMethods (
    'Hash:number --counter' => [ 'foo' ]
  );

However, note that those methods marked "(with custom interface)" below have a different default naming convention for helper methods in Class::MakeMethods, and you will need to either supply a similar interface or alter your module's calling interface.

Also note that the C, C, and C method types, marked "(with modified arguments)" below, require their arguments to be specified differently.

See L for more information about the default interfaces of these method types.
