I'm neither a Moose nor a Ruby expert, but I think with this Ruby code one can instantiate multiple objects each with individual states.

But since Moose roles operate on classes you'll be restricted on a singleton class, i.e. just one object (resp. all objects with the same state.)

But again theoretical thoughts, maybe better if I refrain from this subject.

But thanks for bringing it up, I learned a lot.

PS: I just remember that I once had a similar requirement which I solved with a state attribute.

So calling $self->{state}{method}() solved it for me and I was able to have multidimensional states per object.

Thats very similar to the already proposed proxy-methods.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
