-
-Creates a new Foo::Bar object

-Aditional arguments can be passed to this creator, and they are stored

-
- $self->_init(@args);

-
-Stores the arguments used at new so modules that are loaded later can

-You can also override this method, but if you do so, you should call

+Loads the named Subclass into this object if the named Subclass has
+not been loaded.
-=head2 load
+If debugging is enabled, will warn about loading already loaded
+subclasses. Use C<$cm->is_loaded('Subclass')> to avoid these warnings.
-=head3 Usage
+=head3 Methods
- $db->load('FOO::Subclass');
+If the subclass has a C<_methods> function (or at least,
+UNIVERSAL::can thinks it does), C<_methods> is called to return a LIST
+of methods that the subclass wishes to handle. The L<Class::Modular>
+object and the options SCALAR are passed to the _methods function.
-=head3 Function
+If the subclass does not have a C<_methods> function, then the array
+C<@{"${subclass}::METHODS"}> is used to determine the methods that the
+subclass will handle.
-Loads the named subclass into this object if the named subclass has
-not been loaded.
+=head3 _init and required submodules
-The options scalar is passed to $subclass::_methods when determining
-which methods should be added using _addmethods.
+If the subclass has a C<_init> function (or at least, UNIVERSAL::can
+thinks it does), C<_init> is called right after the module is
+loaded. The L<Class::Modular> object and the options SCALAR are passed
+to the _methods function. Typical uses for this call are to load other
+required submodules.
-The subclasses _init method is called right after methods are loaded.
+As this is the most common thing to do in C<_init>, if a subclass
+doesn't have one, then the array C<@{"${subclass}::SUB_MODULES"}> is
+used to determine the subclass that need to be loaded:
-If debugging is enabled, will warn about loading already loaded
-subclasses.
