Sub::HandlesVia::CodeGenerator - looks at a Handler and generates a string of Perl code for it

"toolkit"Object
       The toolkit which made this code generator.

   "target"ClassName|RoleName
       The target package for generated methods.

   "sandboxing_package"ClassName|RoleName|Undef
       Package name to use as a sandbox; the default is usually fine.

   "attribute"Str|ArrayRef
       The attribute delegated to.

   "attribute_spec"HashRef
       Informational only.

   "is_method"Bool
       Indicates whether the generated code should be methods rather than functions.  This defaults to true, and
       false isn't really tested or well-defined.

   "env"HashRef
       Variables which need to be closed over when compiling coderefs.

   "isa"Maybe[TypeTiny]
       The type constraint for the attribute.

   "coerce"Bool
       Should the attribute coerce?

   "method_installer"CodeRef
       A coderef which can be called with $method_name and $coderef, will install the method. Note that it isn't
       passed the package to install into (which can be found in "target"), so that would need to be closed
       over.

   "generator_for_self"CodeRef
       A coderef which if called, generates a string like '$_[0]'.

       Has a sensible default.

       All the "generator_for_XXX" methods are called as methods, so have the code generator object as an
       invocant.

   "generator_for_slot"CodeRef
       A coderef which if called, generates a string like '$_[0]{attrname}'.

   "generator_for_get"CodeRef
       A coderef which if called, generates a string like '$_[0]->attrname'.

   "generator_for_set"CodeRef
       A coderef which if called with a parameter, generates a string like "\$_[0]->_set_attrname( $parameter
       )".

   "generator_for_simple_default"CodeRef
       A coderef which if called with a parameter, generates a string like 'undef' or 'q[]' or '{}'.

       The parameter is a handler object, which offers a "default_for_reset" attribute which might be able to
       provide a useful fallback.

   "generator_for_args"CodeRef
       A coderef which if called, generates a string like '@_[1..$#_]'.

       Has a sensible default.

   "generator_for_argc"CodeRef
       A coderef which if called, generates a string like '$#_'.

       Has a sensible default.

   "generator_for_argc"CodeRef
       A coderef which if called with a parameter, generates a string like "\$_[$parameter + 1]".

       Has a sensible default.

   "generator_for_currying"CodeRef
       A coderef which if called with a parameter, generates a string like "splice(\@_,1,0,$parameter);".

       Has a sensible default.

   "generator_for_usage_string"CodeRef
       The default is this coderef:

         sub {
           @_==3 or die;
           shift;
           my $method_name = shift;
           my $guts = shift;
           return "\$instance->$method_name($guts)";
         }

   "generator_for_type_assertion"CodeRef
       Called as a method and passed a hashref compilation environment, a type constraint, and a variable name.
       Generates code to assert that the variable value meets the type constraint, with coercion if appropriate.

   "generator_for_error"CodeRef
       Called as a method and passed a Perl string which is an expression evaluating to an error message.
       Generates code to throw the error.

   "generator_for_prelude"CodeRef
       By default is a coderef returning the empty string. Can be used to generate some additional statements
       which will be inserted near the top of the method being generated. (Typically after parameter checks but
       before doing anything serious.) This can be used to unlock a read-only attribute, for example.

   "get_is_lvalue"Bool
       Indicates wheter the code generated by "generator_for_get" will be suitable for used as an lvalue.

   "set_checks_isa"Bool
       Indicates wheter the code generated by "generator_for_set" will do type checks.

   "set_strictly"Bool
       Indicates wheter we want to ensure that the setter is always called, and we should not try to bypass it,
       even if we have an lvalue getter.

       Sub::HandlesVia.

       Sub::HandlesVia toolkits create a code generator for each attribute they're dealing with, and use the
       code generator to generate Perl code for one or more delegated methods.

       For each "generator_for_XXX" attribute, there's a corresponding "generate_XXX" method to actually call
       the coderef, possibly including additional processing.

   "generate_and_install_method($method_name,$handler)"
       Given a handler and a method name, will generate a coderef for the handler and install it into the target
       package.

   "generate_coderef_for_handler($method_name,$handler)"
       As above, but just returns the coderef rather than installs it.

   "install_method($method_name,$coderef)"
       Installs a coderef into the target package with the given name.
