method meta

Documentation for method meta assembled from the following types:

class Perl6::Documentable::Index

From Perl6::Documentable::Index

(Perl6::Documentable::Index) method meta

Defined as

method meta(--> Array[Str])

Returns the meta part corresponding to the reference.

You need to have in mind how the meta part is parsed. Given the following reference element:

content part

The resulting meta part would be:

say $that-reference.meta # OUTPUT: [["a1","a2"],["b1", "b2"]] 

So , is a first-level separator, and ; is a second-level separator.

A Perl6::Documentable::Index object is created by each second-level element found. So, in the previous case, two different objects would have been created (one using ["a1", "a2"] and the other using ["b1", "b2"]).
