NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

      package My::Class;

      use Class::Factory::Util;

      My::Class->subclasses;

DESCRIPTION

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

USAGE

    When this module is loaded, it creates a method in its caller named

    "subclasses()". This method returns a list of the available subclasses

    for the package. It does this by looking in @INC as well as the

    directory containing the caller, and finding any modules in the

    immediate subdirectories of the calling module.

    So if you have the modules "Foo::Base", "Foo::Base::Bar", and

    "Foo::Base::Baz", then the return value of "Foo::Base->subclasses()"

    would be "Bar" and "Baz".
