NAME
    Class::MOP::Module - Module Meta Object

VERSION
    version 2.2200

DESCRIPTION
    A module is essentially a Class::MOP::Package with metadata, in our case the version and
    authority.

INHERITANCE
    Class::MOP::Module is a subclass of Class::MOP::Package.

METHODS
  Class::MOP::Module->create($package, %options)
    Overrides "create" from Class::MOP::Package to provide these additional options:

    "version"
        A version number, to be installed in the $VERSION package global variable.

    "authority"
        An authority, to be installed in the $AUTHORITY package global variable.

        This is a legacy field and its use is not recommended.

  $metamodule->version
    This is a read-only attribute which returns the $VERSION of the package, if one exists.

  $metamodule->authority
    This is a read-only attribute which returns the $AUTHORITY of the package, if one exists.

  $metamodule->identifier
    This constructs a string which combines the name, version and authority.

  Class::MOP::Module->meta
    This will return a Class::MOP::Class instance for this class.
