perl-Class-Loader


Information about the package, perl-Class-Loader, which is shipped with common Linux distributions. The perl-Class-Loader package is designed for, Load modules and create objects on demand.


Package Name:

perl-Class-Loader

Summary:

Load modules and create objects on demand

Description:

Certain applications like to defer the decision to use a particular module till runtime. This is possible in perl, and is a useful trick in situations where the type of data is not known at compile time and the application doesn't wish to pre-compile modules to handle all types of data it can work with. Loading modules at runtime can also provide flexible interfaces for perl modules. Modules can let the programmer decide what modules will be used by it instead of hard-coding their names. Class::Loader is an inheritable class that provides a method, _load(), to load a module from disk and construct an object by calling its constructor. It also provides a way to map modules' names and associated metadata with symbolic names that can be used in place of module names at _load().
