# KiokuDB::Thunk(3pm)

Internal only placeholder for deferred objects

## NAME

KiokuDB::Thunk - Internal only placeholder for deferred objects

## VERSION

version 0.57

## SYNOPSIS

```
    # do not use directly,
    # KiokuDB::Meta::Attribute::Lazy, KiokuDB::Meta::Instance and
    # KiokuDB::TypeMap::Entry::MOP will do the actual thunking of data so that
    # the thunk will never be visible unless you break encapsulation.
```

## DESCRIPTION

This is an internal placeholder object. It will be used on attributes that you mark with KiokuDB::Meta::Attribute::Lazy automatically, and should never be visible to the user because KiokuDB::Meta::Instance will automatically inflate it before it's even seen by the accessor's code.
