#pod =head1 DESCRIPTION
#pod
#pod Role::HasMessage::Errf is an implementation of L<Role::HasMessage> that uses
#pod L<String::Errf> to format C<sprintf>-like message strings. It adds a
#pod C<message_fmt> attribute, initialized by the C<message> argument. The value
#pod should be a String::Errf format string.
#pod
#pod When the provided C<message> method is called, it will fill in the format
#pod string with the hashref returned by calling the C<payload> method, which I<must
#pod be implemented by the including class>.
#pod
#pod Role::HasMessage::Errf is a L<parameterized role|MooseX::Role::Parameterized>.
#pod The C<default> parameter lets you set a default format string or callback. The
#pod C<lazy> parameter sets whether or not the C<message_fmt> attribute is lazy.
#pod Setting it lazy will require that a default is provided.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
Role::HasMessage::Errf is an implementation of L<Role::HasMessage> that uses
L<String::Errf> to format C<sprintf>-like message strings. It adds a
C<message_fmt> attribute, initialized by the C<message> argument. The value
should be a String::Errf format string.
When the provided C<message> method is called, it will fill in the format
string with the hashref returned by calling the C<payload> method, which I<must
be implemented by the including class>.
Role::HasMessage::Errf is a L<parameterized role|MooseX::Role::Parameterized>.
The C<default> parameter lets you set a default format string or callback. The
C<lazy> parameter sets whether or not the C<message_fmt> attribute is lazy.
Setting it lazy will require that a default is provided.
=head1 PERL VERSION
This library should run on perls released even a long time ago. It should work
on any version of perl released in the last five years.
Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the
minimum required version will not be increased. The version may be increased
for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower
the minimum required perl.
