Provided by: libmoosex-types-perl_0.41-1_all bug

NAME

       MooseX::Types::Util - Common utility functions for the distribution

VERSION

       version 0.41

DESCRIPTION

       This package the exportable functions that many parts in MooseX::Types might need.

FUNCTIONS

   filter_tags
       Takes a list and returns two references. The first is a hash reference containing the tags as keys and
       the number of their appearance as values.  The second is an array reference containing all other
       elements.

   has_available_type_export
         TypeConstraint | Undef = has_available_type_export($package, $name);

       This function allows you to introspect if a given type export is available at this point in time. This
       means that the $package must have imported a type constraint with the name $name, and it must be still in
       its symbol table.

       Two arguments are expected:

       $package
           The name of the package to introspect.

       $name
           The name of the type export to introspect.

       Note that the $name is the exported name of the type, not the declared one. This means that if you use
       Sub::Exporters functionality to rename an import like this:

         use MyTypes Str => { -as => 'MyStr' };

       you would have to introspect this type like this:

         has_available_type_export $package, 'MyStr';

       The return value will be either the type constraint that belongs to the export or an undefined value.
