NAME

       WebService::CIA::Source - A base class for WebService::CIA sources

SYNOPSIS

         use WebService::CIA::Source;
         my $source = WebService::CIA::Source->new();

DESCRIPTION

       WebService::CIA::Source is a base class for WebService::CIA sources, such as
       WebService::CIA::Source::DBM and WebService::CIA::Source::Web.

       It could be used as a source in its own right, but it won't get you very far.

METHODS

       "new()"
           This method creates a new WebService::CIA::Source object. It takes no arguments.

       "value($country_code, $field)"
           Retrieve a value. Always returns "undef".

       "all($country_code)"
           Retrieve all fields and values. Always returns an empty hashref.
