A mixin factory generates new classes at run-time which inherit from each of several classes.

new()

$factory_class->new() : $factory $factory_class->new( %attributes ) : $factory Create a new factory object. May be passed a hash of attributes, with the key matching one of the supported accessor methods named below and the value containing the value to assign.

base_class()

$factory->base_class() : $package_name $factory->base_class( $package_name ) Required. Get or set the base class to be inherited from by all mixed classes.

mixin_prefix()

$factory->mixin_prefix() : $package_name $factory->mixin_prefix( $package_name ) Optional. Get or set a prefix to be placed before all mixin class names that don't contain a double-colon. Defaults to the name of the base class.

mixed_prefix()

$factory->mixed_prefix() : $package_name $factory->mixed_prefix( $package_name ) Optional. Get or set a prefix to be placed before all generated class names. Defaults to the name of the base class or the factory class followed by \*(L"::AUTO\*(R"

class()

$factory->class( @mixins ) : $package_name Find or generate a class combining the requested mixin classes.
