Object::Meta::Plugin::Useful::Generic - A generic useful plugin base class.

package MyFoo;
use base "Object::Meta::Plugin::Useful::Generic";
sub new {
my $pkg = shift;
my $self = $pkg->SUPER::new(@_);
$self->export(qw/foo bar/);
}
sub foo {
# ...
}
sub bar {
# ...
}

This provides a very simple base class for a plugin. It uses the method export to explicitly mark a method name for exporting. When Object::Meta::Plugin::Useful's init hits

Returns the list of method names as created by export.
This method takes a list of method names, and makes sure they are all implemented ($self-can($method)>) and so forth. It then makes notes of what remains, and will return these values when the exports method is called by the standard export list implementation.

$self-can($method)> is not happy. You can suppress it with
no warnings 'MyFoo';
Or whatever.
This also means that you will need to
use warnings::register;
The errors are not fatal like they are in Object::Meta::Plugin::Host, because this plugin implementation does not need to be necessarily plugged into the Object::Meta::Plugin::Host implementation.

Nothing I know of.

Nothing right now.
