NAME

Resource::Dispose - Syntax sugar for dispose pattern

SYNOPSIS

use Resource::Dispose;
{
    resource my $obj = Some::Class->new;
}
# $obj->DISPOSE is called even if $obj can not be freed and destroyed

DESCRIPTION

The dispose pattern is a design pattern which is used to handle resource cleanup in runtime environment that use automatic garbage collection. In Perl there is possibility that the object will be destructed during global destruction and it leads to memory leaking and other drawbacks like unclosed file handles, etc.

This module provides new keyword resource as a syntax sugar for dispose pattern. The DISPOSE method of the resource object is called if the resource is going out of scope.

SEE ALSO

This resource keyword is inspired by using keyword from C# language and extended try keyword from Java 7 language.

Guard, Scope::Guard, Devel::Declare.
