NAME

       Autodia::Diagram::Class - Class that holds, updates and outputs the values of a diagram
       element of type class.

SYNOPSIS

       use Autodia::Diagram::Class;

       my $Class = Autodia::Diagram::Class->new;

   Description
       Autodia::Diagram::Class is an object that represents the Dia UML Class element within a
       Dia diagram. It holds, outputs and allows the addition of attributes, relationships and
       methods.

METHODS

   Constructor
       my $Class = Autodia::Diagram::Class->new($name);

       creates and returns a simple Autodia::Diagram::Class object, containing its name and its
       original position (default 0,0).

   Accessors
       Autodia::Diagram::Class attributes are accessed through methods, rather than directly.
       Each attribute is available through calling the method of its name, ie Inheritances(). The
       methods available are :

       Operations, Attributes, Inheritances, Dependancies, Parent, and has_child. The first 4
       return a list, the later return a string.

       Adding elements to the Autodia::Diagram::Class is acheived through the add_<attribute>
       methods, ie add_inheritance().

       Rather than remove an element from the diagram it is marked as redundant and replaced with
       a superceding element, as Autodia::Diagram::Class has highest precedence it won't be
       superceded and so doesn't have a redundant() method. Superclass and Component do.

   Accessing and manipulating the Autodia::Diagram::Class
       $Class->Attributes(), Inheritances(), Operations(), and Dependancies() all return a list
       of their respective elements.

       $Class->Parent(), and has_child() return the value of the parent or child respectively if
       present otherwise a false.

       $Class->add_attribute(), add_inheritance(), add_operation(), and add_dependancy() all add
       a new element of their respective types.
