Search::Tools::Object - base class for Search::Tools objects

 package MyClass;
 use base qw( Search::Tools::Object );

 __PACKAGE__->mk_accessors( qw( foo bar ) );

 sub init {
    my $self = shift;
    $self->SUPER::init(@_);

    # do stuff to set up object

 }

 1;

 # elsewhere

 use MyClass;
 my $object = MyClass->new;
 $object->foo(123);
 print $object->bar . "\n";

Search::Tools::Object is a subclass of Rose::Object. Prior to version 0.24 STO was a subclass of Class::Accessor::Fast. Backwards compatability for the mk_accessors() and mk_ro_accessors() class methods are preserved via Search::Tools::MethodMaker.

Overrides base Rose::Object method. Rather than calling the method name for each param passed in new(), the value is simply set in the object as a hash ref. This assumes every Search::Tools::Object is a blessed hash ref.

The reason the hash is preferred over the method call is to support read-only accessors, which will croak if init() tried to set values with them.

Get/set the debug value for the object. All objects inherit this attribute. You can use the PERL_DEBUG env var to set this value as well.
