=head1 NAME

OO::InsideOut - Minimal support for Inside-Out Classes

=head1 VERSION

0.03

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    package My::Name;

    use OO::InsideOut qw(id register);

    register \my( %Name, %Surname );

    sub new {
        my $class = shift;

        return bless \(my $o), ref $class || $class;
    }

    sub name { 
        my $id = id( shift );

        scalar @_
            and $Name{ $id } = shift;

        return $Name{ $id };
    }

    sub surname { 
        my $id = id( shift );

        scalar @_
            and $Surname{ $id } = shift;

        return $Surname{ $id };
    }

=head1 EXPORT

Nothing by default but every function, in L<FUNCTIONS>, can be exported on demand.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<NOTE: If you're developing for perl 5.10 or later, please consider 
using L<Hash::Util::FieldHash> instead.>

OO::InsideOut provides minimal support for Inside-Out Classes for perl 5.8 
or later. By minimal, understand;

=over 4

=item * No special methods or attributtes;

=item * Don't use source filters or any kind of metalanguage;

=item * No need for a special constructor;

=item * No need to register objects;

=item * No serialization hooks (like Storable, Dumper, etc);

=back


It provides:

=over 4

=item * Automatic object registration;

=item * Automatic object destruction;

=item * Thread support (but not shared);

=item * Foreign inheritance;

=item * mod_perl compatibility 

=back


=head1 FUNCTIONS

=head2 id

    id( $object );

Uses L<Scalar::Util::refaddr|Scalar::Util/refaddr> to return the reference 
address of $object.

=head2 register

    register( @hashrefs );

Register the given hashrefs for proper cleanup.

Returns an HASH ref with registered objects in the CLASS. See L<CAVEATS>.

=head2 Dumper

    Dumper( $object );

If available, uses L<Data::Dumper::Dumper|Data::Dumper/Dumper> to dump the
object's data.

B<WARNING: May be removed in the future!!!>

=head1 HOW IT WORKS

When registering hashes, and only then, B<OO::InsideOut> will:

=over 4

=item * Wrap any new() methodB<*>, in the inheritance tree, with the ability to register objects;

=item * Wrap any DESTROY() methodB<*>, in the inheritance tree, with the ablity to cleanup the object's data;

=item * If no DESTROY() method was found, it provides one in the firs package of the inheritance tree;

=back


B<* This is done only once per package>.

=head1 PERFORMANCE

Every Inside-Out technique, using an B<id> to identify the B<object>, will be 
slower than the classic OO approach: it's just the way it is.

Consider:

    sub name {
        my $self = shift;

        scalar @_
            && $Name{ id( $self ) } = shift;

        return $Name{ id( $self ) );
    }


In this example, the code is calling the B<id> twice, causing uncessary 
overload. If you are going to use B<id> more than once, in the same scope, 
consider saving it in an variable earlier: 

    sub name { 
        my $id = id( shift );

        scalar @_
            && $Name{ $id } = shift;

        return $Name{ $id };
    }


=head1 MIGRATING TO L<Hash::Util::FieldHash>

Bare in mind that, besides the obvious diferences between the two modules, 
in L<Hash::Util::FieldHash>, the cleanup process is triggered before 
calling DESTROY(). In OO::Insideout, this only happens after any 
DESTROY() defined in the package.

See L<How to use Field Hashes|Hash::Util::FieldHas/How to use Field Hashes>.

=head1 DIAGNOSTICS

=over

=item must provide, at least, one hash ref! 

Besides the obvious reason, this migth happen while using C<my> with a list with only one item:

    register \my( %Field ) #WRONG
    register \my %Field    #RIGTH

=back


=head1 CAVEATS

register(), on request, will return an HASH ref with all the objects 
registered in the CLASS. 

If, for any reason, you need to copy/grep this HASH ref, make sure to 
L<weaken|Scalar::Util/weaken> every entry again. See 
L<Scalar::Util::weaken|Scalar::Util/weaken> for more detail on this subject.
