APPENDIX

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

create

Title   : create
Usage   : $factory->create(%args)
Function: Create a new object  
Returns : a new object
Args    : hash of initialization parameters

create_object

Title   : create_object
Usage   : $obj = $factory->create_object(%args)
Function: Create a new object.

          This is supposed to supercede create(). Right now it only delegates
          to create().
Returns : a new object
Args    : hash of initialization parameters
