NAME

       "Tangence::Registry" - object manager for a "Tangence" server

DESCRIPTION

       This subclass of Tangence::Object acts as a container for all the exposed objects in a Tangence server.
       The registry is used to create exposed objects, and manages their lifetime. It maintains a reference to
       all the objects it creates, so it can dispatch incoming messages from clients to them.

CONSTRUCTOR

   new
          $registry = Tangence::Registry->new;

       Returns a new instance of a "Tangence::Registry" object. An entire server requires one registry object;
       it will be shared among all the client connections to that server.

METHODS

   get_by_id
          $obj = $registry->get_by_id( $id );

       Returns the object with the given object ID.

       This method is exposed to clients.

   construct
          $obj = $registry->construct( $type, @args );

       Constructs a new exposed object of the given type, and returns it. Any additional arguments are passed to
       the object's constructor.

   load_tanfile
          $registry->load_tanfile( $tanfile );

       Loads additional Tangence class and struct definitions from the given .tan file.
