Overview

This module provides a simple counter attribute, which can be incremented and decremeneted.

If your attribute definition does not include any of is, isa, default or provides but does use the "Counter" metaclass, then this module applies defaults as in the "SYNOPSIS" above. This allows for a very basic counter definition:

  has 'foo' => (metaclass => 'Counter');
  $obj->inc_foo;

Methods

meta

method_provider

has_method_provider
