NAME
Attribute::Abstract - implementing abstract methods with attributes
SYNOPSIS
package SomeObj;
use Attribute::Abstract;
sub new { ... }
sub write : Abstract;
DESCRIPTION
Declaring a subroutine to be abstract using this attribute causes a call
to it to die with a suitable exception. Subclasses are expected to
implement the abstract method.
Using the attribute makes it visually distinctive that a method is
abstract, as opposed to declaring it without any attribute or method
body, or providing a method body that might make it look as though it
was implemented after all.
BUGS
None known so far. If you find any bugs or oddities, please do inform
the author.
