Untested proof-of-concept. Run it only if you don't mind your hard disks being set on fire.

package Lvalue::GetSet; use Exporter; our @ISA=qw(Exporter); our @EXPORT=qw(get set); sub get(&@) :lvalue { unshift @_, 'get'; goto &getset; } sub set(&@) :lvalue { unshift @_, 'set'; goto &getset; } sub getset :lvalue { if(@_ == 2) { return @_; } elsif(@_ == 4) { my $var; tie $var, 'Lvalue::GetSet::Tie', @_; $var; } else { die "can't happen"; } } package Lvalue::GetSet::Tie; sub TIESCALAR { my($pkg, %obj)=@_; bless \%obj, $pkg; } sub FETCH { $_[0]->{get}->(); } sub STORE { $_[0]->{set}->($_[1]); }

Usage would be something like:

sub name { my $me=shift; get { $me->{name}; } set { die "Invalid name" unless $_[0] =~ /^(\w+)$/; $me->{name} = $1; } }

What's wrong with something like this?

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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.
