=head1 NAME
base - Establish IS-A relationship with base class at compile time.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
package Baz;
use bases
Foo => ':all',
Bar => ''
Bat => undef;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Roughly similar in effect to
package Baz;
use Foo qw(:all);
use Bar();
use Bat;
BEGIN { @ISA = qw(Foo Bar Bat) }
This is very similar to C<base> pragma except %FIELDS is not
supported and you are able to pass parameters to import on the
module that is used in this way.
If the value specified is undef, the module being used import method
will be called if it exists. If the value is an empty string, import
will not be called.
When strict 'vars' is in scope I<bases> 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<bases> silently
C<use>s them. Whether to C<use> 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 bases.pm>.
