NAME

6       Class::Factory::Util - Provide utility methods for factory classes
7

SYNOPSIS

9         package My::Class;
10
11         use Class::Factory::Util;
12
13         My::Class->subclasses;
14

DESCRIPTION

16       This module exports a method that is useful for factory classes.
17

USAGE

19       When this module is loaded, it creates a method in its caller named
20       "subclasses()".  This method returns a list of the available subclasses
21       for the package.  It does this by looking in @INC as well as the direc‐
22       tory containing the caller, and finding any modules in the immediate
23       subdirectories of the calling module.
24
25       So if you have the modules "Foo::Base", "Foo::Base::Bar", and
26       "Foo::Base::Baz", then the return value of "Foo::Base->subclasses()"
27       would be "Bar" and "Baz".
