X::Composition::NotComposable Reference

Compilation error due to composing an ineligible 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 target-name #

method target-name(--> Str:D)

Returns Str:D.

Returns the name of the type that should be composed, but failed.

method composer #

method composer(--> Mu)

Returns Mu.

Returns the type that should be composed into the target, but which isn't a role.

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.

3 no-output

class X::Composition::NotComposable is Exception { }

class B { }
class C does B { }

Not executed: the documentation states no expected output for this example.

␤B is not composable, so C cannot compose it
