Description

       This module will "thaw" and "freeze" Moose classes using Storable. It uses "Storable::nfreeze" by default
       so that it can be easily used in IPC scenarios across machines or just locally.

       One important thing to note is that this module does not mix well with the IO modules. The structures
       that "freeze" and "thaw" deal with are Storable's memory representation, and (as far as I know) that is
       not easily just written onto a file. If you want file based serialization with Storable, the please look
       at the MooseX::Storage::IO::StorableFile role instead.

Methods

freezethaw($stored)

Synopsis

         package Point;
         use Moose;
         use MooseX::Storage;

         with Storage('format' => 'Storable');

         has 'x' => (is => 'rw', isa => 'Int');
         has 'y' => (is => 'rw', isa => 'Int');

         1;

         my $p = Point->new(x => 10, y => 10);

         ## methods to freeze/thaw into
         ## a specified serialization format

         # pack the class with Storable
         my $storable_data = $p->freeze();

         # unpack the storable data into the class
         my $p2 = Point->thaw($storable_data);
