Class::Factory::Util (3pm)

  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 \*(C`subclasses()\*(C'. 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 \*(L"Foo::Base\*(R", \*(L"Foo::Base::Bar\*(R", and \*(L"Foo::Base::Baz\*(R", then the return value of \*(C`Foo::Base->subclasses()\*(C' would be \*(L"Bar\*(R" and \*(L"Baz\*(R".
