X::Augment::NoSuchType Reference

Compilation error due to augmenting a non-existing type

What it is #

Routines #

Signatures are reproduced from the documentation, including their declared return types. A routine listed here is part of the type's published interface; whether Raku++ implements it is a separate question, answered by the examples below.

method package-kind #

method package-kind(--> Str:D)

Returns Str:D.

Returns the kind of package (class, grammar) that is being tried to augment

method package #

Returns the name that was tried to augment, but which doesn't exist.

Examples, run three ways #

Every example below comes from the official documentation, together with the output that documentation asserts. Each was then executed by Rakudo and by Raku++ when this page was built. Where the three agree, one result is shown; where they do not, all three are — because which of them is wrong is exactly the information worth having.
