SYNOPSIS

package foo;
use Meta::Lang::Perl::Interface qw();
my($hash)=Meta::Lang::Perl::Interface::get_hash($my_object);

DESCRIPTION

This module will help you dynamically discover what is an objects interface.

FUNCTIONS

get_data_hash($)
get_method_hash($)

FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION

get_data_hash($)

This method receives a perl object, analyzes it and returns a hash with its data memebers in it.

get_method_hash($)

This method receives a perl object, analyzes it and returns a hash with its method interface in it. On problem here is that I'm turning a string to a hash reference (as needed as far as I can tell) to get to the hash with all the methods in it. This is forbidden by use strict and so I have to relax stuff and put restrictions back in after I do the ugly deed.

BUGS

None.
