Method::Signatures - method and function declarations with signatures and no source filter
20170211
package Foo;
use Method::Signatures;
method new (%args) {
return bless {%args}, $self;
}
# Can also get type checking if you like:
method set (Str $key, Int $val) {
return $self->{$key} = $val; # now you know $val is always an integer
}Provides two new keywords, func and method, so that you can write subroutines with signatures instead of having to spell out my $self = shift; my($thing) = @_
func is like sub but takes a signature where the prototype would normally go. This takes the place of my($foo, $bar) = @_ and does a whole lot more.
method is like func but specifically for making methods. It will automatically provide the invocant as $self (by default). No more my $self = shift.
