I'm not sure if "is required" qualifies as an "initializer"
to someone but it doesn't in my mind. Also, it would be nice
if it was called an attribute instead of the more generic
term variable. See below.
[jdv@new-host-2 ~]$ perl6 -e 'class A {has Any:D $.a};A.new(:a(1))'
===SORRY!=== Error while compiling -e
Variable definition of type Any:D requires an initializer
at -e:1
------> class A {has Any:D $.a⏏};A.new(:a(1))
expecting any of:
constraint
[jdv@new-host-2 ~]$ perl6 -e 'class A {has Any:D $.a=2};A.new(:a(1))'
[jdv@new-host-2 ~]$ perl6 -e 'class A {has Any:D $.a is
required};A.new(:a(1))'
[jdv@new-host-2 ~]$ perl6 -v
