Additionally, a C keyword is provided, #pod which allows you to explicitly clean all functions that were defined prior to #pod calling C. Here's an example: #pod #pod use MooseX::Declare; #pod class Foo is dirty { #pod sub helper_function { ... } #pod clean; #pod method foo ($stuff) { ...; return helper_function($stuff); } #pod } #pod #pod With that, the helper function won't be available as a method to a user of your #pod class, but you're still able to use it inside your class. #pod #pod =head1 NOTE ON IMPORTS #pod #pod When creating a class with MooseX::Declare like: #pod #pod use MooseX::Declare; #pod class Foo { ... } #pod #pod What actually happens is something like this: #pod #pod { #pod package Foo; #pod use Moose; #pod use namespace::autoclean; #pod ... #pod __PACKAGE__->meta->make_immutable; #pod } #pod #pod So if you declare imports outside the class, the symbols get imported into the #pod C namespace, not the class' namespace.
