Meta programming is becoming more and more popular. The popularity of Meta
programming comes from the fact that many problems are made significantly
easier. There are a few specialized Meta tools out there, for instance
Class:MOP which is used by Moose to track class metadata.
.
Meta::Builder is designed to be a generic tool for writing Meta objects.
Unlike specialized tools, Meta::Builder makes no assumptions about what
metrics you will care about. Meta::Builder also mkaes it simple for others to
extend your meta-object based tools by providing hooks for other packages to
add metrics to your meta object.
.
If a specialized Meta object tool is available to meet your needs please use
it. However if you need a simple Meta object to track a couple metrics, use
Meta::Builder.
