Class::Base uses keyword parms for constructor but then methods use positional [oop, swengr]

I like the rigor that Class::Base places on the constructor. And I am a big fan of keyword parms. But CB does not seem to be a complete solution for oop-dev because you dont get the same parameter validation for methods.

I endorse and use Params::Validate for this purpose. What do you use to get validated keywords parms for constructor and methods for your oop-dev?

This may or may not help you, but have you looked at Moose?	[reply]

Also, for method parameter valiation with Moose there are two possibilities. MooseX::Params::Validate which just wraps Params::Validate to make it more Moosey, and MooseX::Method which is a more full featured. -stvn	[reply]

very nice addons stvn. Thing is, as a newcomer to Moose, the docs do not have MooseX in the SEE ALSO section and the series of questions under DESCRIPTION do not point to it. So, after casually looking over the docs, I was wondering why Mutant even pointed me to it in the first place because it seemed to only be able to do positions parms.	[reply]
