Acme::UNIVERSAL::new - the only constructor you ever need

Version 0.01

Acme::UNIVERSAL::new provides UNIVERSAL::new(),
the only constructor you will ever need:
use Acme::UNIVERSAL::new;
my $q = UNIVERSAL::new( 'CGI' );
my $dbh = UNIVERSAL::new( 'dbi:Pg:dbname=my_db', '', '', {} );
# ...
Just call UNIVERSAL::new() as a function, passing whatever arguments you want, and you will receive an appropriate object.

This module provides only one useful function:
UNIVERSAL::newThe universal constructor. Pass in arguments. Get back an object. What could be easier?
There are a few other functions:
get_class( $symbol_table, $name_prefix )Returns a random class name, after finding everything that looks like a class beneath the given $symbol_table reference named $name_prefix. If you pass neither argument, this starts in the main symbol table.
get_ref()Returns a random blessable reference.
has_constructor( $class_name )Returns true if the given class has a constructor named new() that is not UNIVERSAL::new().
get_symbols( $symbol_table )Returns a hash of symbol tables and their plain names.
