Besides defining negative and positive infinity, the only problem I see is if both min and max are set at the same time, as in the constructor. I don't know which error you'd get if the object was initialized like this:

my $foo = Foo->new(
  min => 1,
  max => -1,
);

Attributes are stored in a hash so there is no way to determine for sure which one will be created first. However I suspect that it wouldn't matter too much anyway.

Re: checking consistency between attributes



Hello list.

What's the best way to check consistency between attributes values ? Is
there anything better than a dedicated BUILD method, such as:

use Moose;
use Carp;

has 'min'  => (is => 'rw', isa => 'Int');
has 'max'  => (is => 'rw', isa => 'Int');

sub BUILD {
    my ($self, $params) = @_;

    my ($max, $min) = ($self->max(), $self->min());
    croak "max < min" if defined $max && defined $min && $max < $min;
}
