ABSTRACT
Unique, associative MULTI bean attribute information
DESCRIPTION
PerlBean::Attribute::Multi::Unique::Associative::MethodKey
contains information on unique associative MULTI bean attribute that gets its key from an object method. It is a subclass of PerlBean::Attribute::Multi
. The code generation and documentation methods from PerlBean::Attribute
are implemented.
