class X::Bind::NativeType does X::Comp { }

Compile-time error thrown when trying to bind to a natively typed variable.

Since native variables explicitly don't have the concept of a container at runtime, it does not make sense to support both binding and assignment; Raku supports only assignment (which makes more sense, because native types are value types).

For example the code

my int $x := 3;

dies with

Cannot bind to natively typed variable '$x'; use assignment instead

and can be fixed by writing it as

my int $x = 3;

Methods

method name

method name(--> Str:D)

Returns the name of the variable.
