attrs

Arguments: %attributes

Arguments: \%attributes

Return Value: $self

Arguments: none

Return Value: \%attributes

Accepts either a list of key/value pairs, or a hash-ref.

    $w->attributes( $key => $value );
    $w->attributes( { $key => $value } );

Returns the object reference, to allow method chaining.

As of v1.10, passing a hash-ref no longer deletes current attributes, instead the attributes are added to the current attributes hash.

This means the attributes hash-ref can no longer be emptied using "$w-"attributes( { } );>. Instead, you may use "%{ $w-"attributes } = ();>.

As a special case, if no arguments are passed, the return value is a hash-ref of attributes instead of the object reference. This provides backwards compatibility to support:

    $w->attributes->{key} = $value;

"attrs" is an alias for "attributes".

mk_attr_accessors

Arguments: @names
