NAME

       Specio::Library::Builtins - Implements type constraint objects for Perl's built-in types

VERSION

       version 0.42

DESCRIPTION

       This library provides a set of types parallel to those provided by Moose.

       The types are in the following hierarchy

         Item
             Bool
             Maybe (of `a)
             Undef
             Defined
                 Value
                     Str
                         Num
                             Int
                         ClassName
                 Ref
                     ScalarRef (of `a)
                     ArrayRef (of `a)
                     HashRef (of `a)
                     CodeRef
                     RegexpRef
                     GlobRef
                     FileHandle
                     Object

   Item
       Accepts any value

   Bool
       Accepts a non-reference that is "undef", an empty string, 0, or 1. It also accepts any
       object which overloads boolification.

   Maybe (of `a)
       A parameterizable type which accepts "undef" or the type "`a". If not parameterized this
       type will accept any value.

   Undef
       Only accepts "undef".

   Value
       Accepts any non-reference value.

   Str
       Accepts any non-reference value or an object which overloads stringification.

   Num
       Accepts nearly the same values as "Scalar::Util::looks_like_number", but does not accept
       numbers with leading or trailing spaces, infinities, or NaN. Also accepts an object which
       overloads numification.

   Int
       Accepts any integer value, or an object which overloads numification and numifies to an
       integer.

   ClassName
       Accepts any value which passes "Str" where the string is a loaded package.

   Ref
       Accepts any reference.

   ScalarRef (of `a)
       Accepts a scalar reference or an object which overloads scalar dereferencing. If
       parameterized, the dereferenced value must be of type "`a".

   ArrayRef (of `a)
       Accepts a array reference or an object which overloads array dereferencing. If
       parameterized, the values in the arrayref must be of type "`a".

   HashRef (of `a)
       Accepts a hash reference or an object which overloads hash dereferencing. If
       parameterized, the values in the hashref must be of type "`a".

   CodeRef
       Accepts a code (sub) reference or an object which overloads code dereferencing.

   RegexpRef
       Accepts a regex object created by "qr//" or an object which overloads regex interpolation.

   GlobRef
       Accepts a glob reference or an object which overloads glob dereferencing.

   FileHandle
       Accepts a glob reference which is an open file handle, any "IO::Handle" Object or
       subclass, or an object which overloads glob dereferencing and returns a glob reference
       which is an open file handle.

   Object
       Accepts any blessed object.
