+
+metaclass - a pragma for installing and using Class::MOP metaclasses
+
+=head1 VERSION
+
+version 2.1405
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ package MyClass;
+
+ # use Class::MOP::Class
+ use metaclass;
+
+ # ... or use a custom metaclass
+ use metaclass 'MyMetaClass';
+
+ # ... or use a custom metaclass
+ # and custom attribute and method
+ # metaclasses
+ use metaclass 'MyMetaClass' => (
+ 'attribute_metaclass' => 'MyAttributeMetaClass',
+ 'method_metaclass' => 'MyMethodMetaClass',
+ );
+
+ # ... or just specify custom attribute
+ # and method classes, and Class::MOP::Class
+ # is the assumed metaclass
+ use metaclass (
+ 'attribute_metaclass' => 'MyAttributeMetaClass',
+ 'method_metaclass' => 'MyMethodMetaClass',
+ );
+
+ # if we'd rather not install a 'meta' method, we can do this
+ use metaclass meta_name => undef;
+ # or if we'd like it to have a different name,
+ use metaclass meta_name => 'my_meta';
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This is a pragma to make it easier to use a specific metaclass
+and a set of custom attribute and method metaclasses. It also
+installs a C<meta> method to your class as well, unless C<undef>
+is passed to the C<meta_name> option.
+
+Note that if you are using Moose, you most likely do B<not> want
+to be using this - look into L<Moose::Util::MetaRole> instead.
