role Metamodel::Trusting is SuperClass { ... }
Warning: this role is part of the Rakudo implementation, and is not a part of the language specification.
Normally, code in a class or role can only access its own private methods. If another type declares that it trusts that first class, then access to private methods of that second type is possible. Metamodel::Trusting
implements that aspect of the Raku object system.
class A { my class B { trusts A; # that's where Metamodel::Trusting comes in method !private_method() { say "Private method in B"; } } method build-and-poke { # call a private method from B # disallowed if A doesn't trust B B.new()!B::private_method(); } }; A.build-and-poke; # Private method in B
