NAME

       Class::Factory::Util - Provide utility methods for factory classes

SYNOPSIS

	 package My::Class;

	 use Class::Factory::Util;

	 My::Class->subclasses;

DESCRIPTION

       This module exports a method that is useful for factory classes.

USAGE

       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".
