OK, point taken - Moose self-evidently isn't as paranoid about revealing its' inner workings as Object::InsideOut.
A user level that continues to overstate my experience :-))

Moose self-evidently isn't as paranoid about revealing its' inner workings as Object::InsideOut

Yeah, it is exactly the opposite of the Inside-Out objects, using the meta layer of Moose that is provided by Class::MOP you can dig very deeply into the class and get all the details if you want.

my $foo = Foo->new;
my $meta_instance = Foo->meta->get_meta_instance;
print join "\n" => map { "$_ => " . $meta_instance->get_slot_value($fo
+o, $_) } $meta_instance->get_all_slots;

Or, because Moose deep down is just plain old HASH based perl objects you can just do

print Dumper $foo;

Or as the above poster pointed out you can use the (simplistic but useful) Moose::Object::dump method

print $foo->dump;

But all that said, Object::InsideOut also provides a dump method that by default will do the right thing too.

I did use data Dumper on it and Maxdepth didn't reveal anything extra. here is what the dump is showing:


$VAR1 = {
          'TimeEstimated' => '',
          'Status' => 'open',
          'Queue' => 'q1',
          'AdminCc' => '',
          'Requestors' => 'log@log.com',
          'Started' => 'Thu Feb 19 1:02:58 2009',
          'InitialPriority' => '40',
          'Starts' => 'Not set',
          'TimeWorked' => '',
          'id' => 'ticket/2',
          'Told' => 'Not set',
          'Cc' => '',
          'Subject' => 'test ticket',
          'FinalPriority' => '90',
          'TimeLeft' => '',
          'Creator' => 'guy',
          'Owner' => 'guy',
          'Resolved' => 'Not set',
          'Created' => 'Tue Feb 17 13:22:11 2009',
          'Priority' => '42',
          'Due' => 'Not set'
}
