Class::Factory::Util - Provide utility methods for factory classes
package My::Class;
use Class::Factory::Util;
My::Class->subclasses;
This module exports a method that is useful for factory classes.
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".
