SWISH::Prog::Class - base class for SWISH::Prog classes

package My::Class; use base qw( SWISH::Prog::Class ); 1; # see METHODS for what you get for free

SWISH::Prog::Class is a subclass of Class::Accessor::Fast. It's a base class useful for making simple accessor/mutator methods. SWISH::Prog::Class implements some additional methods and features useful for SWISH::Prog projects.

Constructor. Returns a new object. May take a hash or hashref as params.
Override init() in your subclass to perform object maintenance at construction time. Called by new().
Get/set the debug level. Default is 0.
Get/set the warnings level. Default is 0.
Get/set flags affecting the verbosity of the program.
Returns the elapsed time in seconds since object was created.
Returns $self (and data if present) via Data::Dump::dump. Useful for peering inside an object or other scalar.
Returns a SWISH::Prog::Config object based on config.
config may be a readable file name or a SWISH::Prog::Config object.
Will croak if config is neither of the above.
