# ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::Constructor(3pm)

Node representing a constructor method

## NAME

ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::Constructor - Node representing a constructor method

## DESCRIPTION

An ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::Method subclass representing a  constructor such as:

```
  class FooBar {
    FooBar(); // <-- this one
  };
```

## METHODS

### new

Creates a new `"ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::Constructor"`.

Most of the functionality of this class is inherited. This means that all named parameters of ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::Method and its base class are also valid for this class' constructor.

Additionally, this class requires that no return type has been specified as constructors do not have return types.

### ret\_type

Unlike the `"ret_type"` method of the ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::Method class, `"ret_type"` will return the type "pointer to object of this class" as return type of the constructor.
