=head1 NAME
|
||
|
|
||
|
base - Establish IS-A relationship with base class at compile time
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
||
|
package Baz;
|
||
|
use base qw(Foo Bar);
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
||
|
Roughly similar in effect to
|
||
|
|
||
|
BEGIN {
|
||
|
require Foo;
|
||
|
require Bar;
|
||
|
push @ISA, qw(Foo Bar);
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
Will also initialize the %FIELDS hash if one of the base classes has
|
||
|
it. Multiple inheritance of %FIELDS is not supported. The 'base'
|
||
|
pragma will croak if multiple base classes has a %FIELDS hash. See
|
||
|
L<fields> for a description of this feature.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When strict 'vars' is in scope I<base> also let you assign to @ISA
|
||
|
without having to declare @ISA with the 'vars' pragma first.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This module was introduced with Perl 5.004_04.
