=head1 NAME
Class::Meta::Types::String - String data types
=head1 SYNOPSIS
package MyApp::Thingy;
use strict;
use Class::Meta;
use Class::Meta::Types::String;
# OR...
# use Class::Meta::Types::String 'affordance';
# OR...
# use Class::Meta::Types::String 'semi-affordance';
BEGIN {
# Create a Class::Meta object for this class.
my $cm = Class::Meta->new( key => 'thingy' );
# Add a string attribute.
$cm->add_attribute( name => 'name',
type => 'string' );
$cm->build;
}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module provides a string data type for use with Class::Meta attributes.
Simply load it, then pass "string" to the C<add_attribute()> method of a
Class::Meta object to create an attribute of the string data type. See
L<Class::Meta::Type|Class::Meta::Type> for more information on using and
creating data types.
