NAME

PerlBean::Attribute::Multi::Unique::Associative::MethodKey - contains unique associative MULTI bean attribute information

SYNOPSIS

use strict;
use PerlBean::Attribute::Multi::Unique::Associative::MethodKey;
my $attr = PerlBean::Attribute::Multi::Unique::Associative::MethodKey->new( {
    attribute_name => 'ssns_i_know_from_people',
    short_description => 'all SSNs I know from people',
} );

use IO::File;
-d 'tmp' || mkdir('tmp');
my $fh = IO::File->new('> tmp/PerlBean_Attribute_Multi_Unique_Associative_MethodKey.pl.out');
$attr->write_methods($fh);
$attr->write_doc_methods($fh);

ABSTRACT

Unique, associative MULTI bean attribute information

DESCRIPTION

PerlBean::Attribute::Multi::Unique::Associative::MethodKey contains information on unique associative MULTI bean attribute that gets its key from an object method. It is a subclass of PerlBean::Attribute::Multi. The code generation and documentation methods from PerlBean::Attribute are implemented.

CONSTRUCTOR

new(OPT_HASH_REF)

Creates a new PerlBean::Attribute::Multi::Unique::Associative::MethodKey object. OPT_HASH_REF is a hash reference used to pass initialization options. OPT_HASH_REF is mandatory. On error an exception Error::Simple is thrown.

Options for OPT_HASH_REF may include:

id_method

Passed to set_id_method(). Defaults to 'get_id'.

Options for OPT_HASH_REF inherited through package PerlBean::Attribute may include:

attribute_name

Passed to set_attribute_name(). Mandatory option.

default_value

Passed to set_default_value().

documented

Passed to set_documented(). Defaults to 1.

exception_class

Passed to set_exception_class(). Defaults to 'Error::Simple'.

mandatory

Passed to set_mandatory(). Defaults to 0.

method_base

Passed to set_method_base().

perl_bean

Passed to set_perl_bean().

short_description

Passed to set_short_description().

Options for OPT_HASH_REF inherited through package PerlBean::Attribute::Single may include:

allow_empty

Passed to set_allow_empty(). Defaults to 1.

allow_isa

Passed to set_allow_isa(). Must be an ARRAY reference.

allow_ref

Passed to set_allow_ref(). Must be an ARRAY reference.

allow_rx

Passed to set_allow_rx(). Must be an ARRAY reference.

allow_value

Passed to set_allow_value(). Must be an ARRAY reference.

METHODS

get_overloaded_attribute()

This method is inherited from package 'PerlBean::Attribute'. Searches superclass packages for an identically named PerlBean::Attribute. If found it is returned otherwise undef is returned.

get_package()

This method is inherited from package 'PerlBean::Attribute'. Returns the package name. The package name is obtained from the PerlBean to which the PerlBean::Attribute belongs. Or, if the PerlBean::Attribute does not belong to a PerlBean, main is returned.

get_package_us()

This method is inherited from package 'PerlBean::Attribute'. Calls get_package() and replaces :+ with C <_>.

type()

This method is inherited from package 'PerlBean::Attribute'. Determins and returns the type of the attribute. The type is either BOOLEAN, SINGLE or MULTI.

write_allow_isa()

This method is inherited from package 'PerlBean::Attribute::Single'. Returns a %ALLOW_ISA line string for the attribute.

write_allow_ref()

This method is inherited from package 'PerlBean::Attribute::Single'. Returns a %ALLOW_REF line string for the attribute.

write_allow_rx()

This method is inherited from package 'PerlBean::Attribute::Single'. Returns a %ALLOW_RX line string for the attribute.

write_allow_value()

This method is inherited from package 'PerlBean::Attribute::Single'. Returns a %ALLOW_VALUE line string for the attribute.

write_default_value()

This method is inherited from package 'PerlBean::Attribute::Multi'. Returns a %DEFAULT_VALUE line string for the attribute.

write_doc_clauses(FILEHANDLE)

This method is inherited from package 'PerlBean::Attribute'. Writes documentation for the clauses to which the contents the contents of the attribute must adhere. FILEHANDLE is an IO::Handle object.

write_doc_inherit_methods(FILEHANDLE)

This method is an implementation from package 'PerlBean::Attribute::Multi'. Writes documentation for the access methods for the attribute in the case the attibute methods are inherited. FILEHANDLE is an IO::Handle object. Access methods are set..., add..., delete..., exists..., keys... and values....

write_doc_init(FILEHANDLE)

This method is inherited from package 'PerlBean::Attribute::Multi'. Writes documentation for _initialize() for the attribute. FILEHANDLE is an IO::Handle object.

write_doc_methods(FILEHANDLE)

This method is an implementation from package 'PerlBean::Attribute::Multi'. Writes documentation for the access methods for the attribute. FILEHANDLE is an IO::Handle object. Access methods are set..., add..., delete..., exists..., keys... and values....

write_methods(FILEHANDLE)

This method is an implementation from package 'PerlBean::Attribute::Multi'. Writes the access methods for the attribute. FILEHANDLE is an IO::Handle object. Access methods are set..., add..., delete..., exists..., keys... and values....

write_opt_init(FILEHANDLE)

This method is inherited from package 'PerlBean::Attribute::Multi'. Writes _initialize() option parsing code for the attribute. FILEHANDLE is an IO::Handle object.

set_id_method(VALUE)

Set the method to obtain the ID from the item in the list. VALUE is the value. Default value at initialization is 'get_id'. On error an exception Error::Simple is thrown.

get_id_method()

Returns the method to obtain the ID from the item in the list.
