Dynamic generation of ... stuff

[shadowcat-mst]

I mean, logically, I guess I can eval up an entire class in a BEGIN block or something ... but it'd be nice to be able to generate two or three methods dynamically all the same.

Ideally, I'd be able to do 'method $name (...) { ... }' but '*name = method (...) { ... }' or some similar syntax would also be fine, I just want some way to be able to generate two or three methods in a foreach loop or similar (and I'd like to be able to do it for attributes as well, ideally).

If we want to be able to close the class at the end of the 'class { ... }' block I have no issue with having to do whatever I'm doing in a 'BEGIN { ... }' block inside the class block ... but I really do need some way to do that.

This might be possible via the MOP. I cannot say, but maybe @leonerd can?

Unless this is trivial, I'm marking this as Post-MVP.

There's plenty of MOP thoughts already, in https://metacpan.org/pod/Object::Pad::MOP::Class and the related ::Slot and ::Method.

Leaving this open because I suspect it will be relevant to @leonerd's work on the MOP.
