NAME

       BSON::String - BSON type wrapper for strings

VERSION

       version v1.4.0

SYNOPSIS

           use BSON::Types ':all';

           bson_string( $string );

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides a BSON type wrapper for a string value.

       Since Perl does not distinguish between numbers and strings, this module provides an
       explicit string type for a scalar value.

ATTRIBUTES

   value
       A scalar value, which will be stringified during construction.  The default is the empty
       string.

METHODS

   TO_JSON
       Returns value as a string.

OVERLOADING

       The stringification operator ("") is overloaded to return the "value", the full "minimal
       set" of overloaded operations is provided (per overload documentation) and fallback
       overloading is enabled.
