class X::Parameter::Default
class X::Parameter::Default does X::Comp { }
Compile-time error thrown when a parameter in a signature has default value, but isn't allowed to have one. That is the case with slurpy parameters (because a slurpy always binds successfully, even to zero arguments) and with mandatory parameters.
Example:
sub f($x! = 3) { }
dies with
===SORRY!===
Cannot put default on required parameter $x
And
sub f(*@ = 3) { }
dies with
===SORRY!===
Cannot put default on anonymous slurpy parameter
