package Refine;

=head1 NAME

Refine - Refine an instance with new methods

=head1 VERSION

0.01

=head1 DESCRIPTION

L is a module that export C<$_refine> which can be used to add
methods object instances. Each C<$_refine> call on the object will create a
new class with the new refined methods and rebless the instance into that
class, which keeps the original class as it was.

This is an EXPERIMENTAL release. The class generator might change in future releases.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

use Refine;
use Data::Dumper ();

my $obj = Some::Class->new;

# add the dump() method to the $obj instance
$obj->$_refine(
dump => sub { Data::Dumper->new([$_[0])->Terse(1)->SortKeys(1)->Dump },
);

=head1 OPTIONAL MODULES

=over 4

=item * Sub::Name

If you have L installed, the methods will have proper names,
instead of "__ANON__". This will make stacktraces easier to read.
