class Class
# Declare a class-level attribute whose value is inheritable by subclasses.
# Subclasses can change their own value and it will not impact parent class.
#
# class Base
# class_attribute :setting
# end
#
# class Subclass < Base
# end
#
# Base.setting = true
# Subclass.setting # => true
# Subclass.setting = false
# Subclass.setting # => false
# Base.setting # => true
#
# In the above case as long as Subclass does not assign a value to setting
# by performing <tt>Subclass.setting = _something_ </tt>, <tt>Subclass.setting</tt>
# would read value assigned to parent class. Once Subclass assigns a value then
# the value assigned by Subclass would be returned.
#
# This matches normal Ruby method inheritance: think of writing an attribute
# on a subclass as overriding the reader method. However, you need to be aware
# when using +class_attribute+ with mutable structures as +Array+ or +Hash+.
# In such cases, you don't want to do changes in places but use setters:
#
# Base.setting = []
# Base.setting # => []
# Subclass.setting # => []
#
# # Appending in child changes both parent and child because it is the same object:
# Subclass.setting << :foo
# Base.setting # => [:foo]
# Subclass.setting # => [:foo]
#
# # Use setters to not propagate changes:
# Base.setting = []
# Subclass.setting += [:foo]
# Base.setting # => []
# Subclass.setting # => [:foo]
#
# For convenience, an instance predicate method is defined as well.
# To skip it, pass <tt>instance_predicate: false</tt>.
#
# Subclass.setting? # => false
#
# Instances may overwrite the class value in the same way:
#
# Base.setting = true
# object = Base.new
# object.setting # => true
# object.setting = false
# object.setting # => false
# Base.setting # => true
#
# To opt out of the instance reader method, pass <tt>instance_reader: false</tt>.
#
# object.setting # => NoMethodError
# object.setting? # => NoMethodError
#
# To opt out of the instance writer method, pass <tt>instance_writer: false</tt>.
#
# object.setting = false # => NoMethodError
#
# To opt out of both instance methods, pass <tt>instance_accessor: false</tt>.
