=head1 NAME
base - Establish IS-A relationship with base class at compile time
=head1 SYNOPSIS
package Baz;
use base qw(Foo Bar);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Roughly similar in effect to
BEGIN {
require Foo;
require Bar;
push @ISA, qw(Foo Bar);
}
Will also initialize the %FIELDS hash if one of the base classes has
it. Multiple inheritance of %FIELDS is not supported. The 'base'
pragma will croak if multiple base classes have a %FIELDS hash. See
L<fields> for a description of this feature.
When strict 'vars' is in scope I<base> also let you assign to @ISA
without having to declare @ISA with the 'vars' pragma first.
If any of the base classes are not loaded yet, I<base> silently
C<require>s them. Whether to C<require> a base class package is
determined by the absence of a global $VERSION in the base package.
If $VERSION is not detected even after loading it, <base> will
define $VERSION in the base package, setting it to the string
C<-1, set by base.pm>.
=head1 HISTORY
This module was introduced with Perl 5.004_04.
