# Class::Accessor::Children(3pm)

Automated child-class/accessor generation

## NAME

Class::Accessor::Children - Automated child-class/accessor generation

## SYNOPSIS

BEFORE (WITHOUT THIS)

```
    package MyClass::Foo;
    use base qw( Class:Accessor );
    __PACKAGE__->mk_ro_accessors(qw( jacob michael joshua ethan ));
    package MyClass::Bar;
    use base qw( Class:Accessor );
    __PACKAGE__->mk_ro_accessors(qw( emily emma madison isabella ));
    package MyClass::Baz;
    use base qw( Class:Accessor );
    __PACKAGE__->mk_ro_accessors(qw( haruka haruto miyu yuto ));
```

AFTER (WITH THIS)

```
    package MyClass;
    use base qw( Class::Accessor::Children );
    __PACKAGE__->mk_child_ro_accessors(
        Foo => [qw( jacob michael joshua ethan )],
        Bar => [qw( emily emma madison isabella )],
        Baz => [qw( haruka haruto miyu yuto )],
    );
```

## DESCRIPTION

This module automagically generates child classes  which have accessor/mutator methods.

This module inherits `"Class::Accessor"` to make accessors.

## METHODS

This module provides the following methods in addition to all methods  provided by `"Class::Accessor"`.

### mk\_child\_accessors

```
    MyClass->mk_child_accessors( Foo => \@fields, ... );
```

This generates a child class named `"MyClass::Foo"`  which have accessor/mutator methods each named in `"\@fields"`.

### mk\_child\_ro\_accessors

```
    MyClass->mk_child_ro_accessors( Bar => \@fields, ... );
```

This generates a child class named `"MyClass::Bar"` which have read-only accessors (ie. true accessors).

### mk\_child\_wo\_accessors

```
    MyClass->mk_child_wo_accessors( Baz => \@fields, ... );
```

This generates a child class named `"MyClass::Baz"` which have write-only accessor (ie. mutators).
