I think the Class::Accessor::Grouped POD makes it quite clear. If you use the "simple" group you get behaviour like Class::Accessor, where an accessor call hits get_simple($property) and a mutator call hits set_simple($property, $value). However you also have other option groups: "inherited", which gives behaviour similar to Class::Data::Accessor, and "component_class" which is specifically an accessor for package-names (set it, and the package is loaded before the property set). Not to be rude, but did you read the C::A::Grouped manual before asking this question? I just skimmed it to answer this question and it seems quite clear. /joel _______________________________________________ List: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbix-class IRC: irc.perl.org#dbix-class SVN: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/repos/bast/DBIx-Class/ Searchable Archive: http://www.grokbase.com/group/[email protected]
