DESCRIPTION

       This class is a meta object protocol for Mouse classes, which is a subset of
       Moose::Meta:::Class.

METHODS

   "initialize(ClassName) -> Mouse::Meta::Class"
       Finds or creates a "Mouse::Meta::Class" instance for the given ClassName. Only one
       instance should exist for a given class.

   "name -> ClassName"
       Returns the name of the owner class.

   "superclasses -> ClassNames" "superclass(ClassNames)"
       Gets (or sets) the list of superclasses of the owner class.

   "add_method(name => CodeRef)"
       Adds a method to the owner class.

   "has_method(name) -> Bool"
       Returns whether we have a method with the given name.

   "get_method(name) -> Mouse::Meta::Method | undef"
       Returns a Mouse::Meta::Method with the given name.

       Note that you can also use "$metaclass->name->can($name)" for a method body.

   "get_method_list -> Names"
       Returns a list of method names which are defined in the local class.  If you want a list
       of all applicable methods for a class, use the "get_all_methods" method.

   "get_all_methods -> (Mouse::Meta::Method)"
       Return the list of all Mouse::Meta::Method instances associated with the class and its
       superclasses.

   "add_attribute(name => spec | Mouse::Meta::Attribute)"
       Begins keeping track of the existing Mouse::Meta::Attribute for the owner class.

   "has_attribute(Name) -> Bool"
       Returns whether we have a Mouse::Meta::Attribute with the given name.

   "get_attribute Name -> Mouse::Meta::Attribute | undef"
       Returns the Mouse::Meta::Attribute with the given name.

   "get_attribute_list -> Names"
       Returns a list of attribute names which are defined in the local class. If you want a list
       of all applicable attributes for a class, use the "get_all_attributes" method.

   "get_all_attributes -> (Mouse::Meta::Attribute)"
       Returns the list of all Mouse::Meta::Attribute instances associated with this class and
       its superclasses.

   "linearized_isa -> [ClassNames]"
       Returns the list of classes in method dispatch order, with duplicates removed.

   "new_object(Parameters) -> Instance"
       Creates a new instance.

   "clone_object(Instance, Parameters) -> Instance"
       Clones the given instance which must be an instance governed by this metaclass.

   "throw_error(Message, Parameters)"
       Throws an error with the given message.
