Description: Perl implementation of the "Adapter" Design Pattern
The Class::Adapter class is intended as an abstract base class for creating
any sort of class or object that follows the Adapter pattern.
.
The term Adapter refers to a "Design Pattern" of the same name, from the
famous "Gang of Four" book "Design Patterns". Although their original
implementation was designed for Java and similar single-inheritance
strictly-typed langauge, the situation for which it applies is still valid.
.
An Adapter in this Perl sense of the term is when a class is created to
achieve by composition (objects containing other object) something that can't
be achieved by inheritance (sub-classing).
.
This is similar to the Decorator pattern, but is intended to be applied on a
class-by-class basis, as opposed to being able to be applied one object at a
time, as is the case with the Decorator pattern.
