NAME

Class::Accessor::Chained - make chained accessors

SYNOPSIS

 package Foo;
 use base qw( Class::Accessor::Chained );
 __PACKAGE__->mk_accessors(qw( foo bar baz ));

 my $foo = Foo->new->foo(1)->bar(2)->baz(4);
 print $foo->bar; # prints 2

DESCRIPTION

A chained accessor is one that always returns the object when called with parameters (to set), and the value of the field when called with no arguments.

This module subclasses Class::Accessor in order to provide the same mk_accessors interface.
