=head1 NAME

Template::Config - Factory module for instantiating other TT2 modules

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Template::Config;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module implements various methods for loading and instantiating
other modules that comprise the Template Toolkit.  It provides a consistent
way to create toolkit components and allows custom modules to be used in 
place of the regular ones.

Package variables such as $STASH, $SERVICE, $CONTEXT, etc., contain
the default module/package name for each component (Template::Stash,
Template::Service and Template::Context, respectively) and are used by
the various factory methods (stash(), service() and context()) to load
the appropriate module.  Changing these package variables will cause
subsequent calls to the relevant factory method to load and instantiate
an object from the new class.

=head1 PUBLIC METHODS

=head2 load($module)

Load a module via require().  Any occurences of '::' in the module name
are be converted to '/' and '.pm' is appended.  Returns 1 on success
or undef on error.  Use $class-E<gt>error() to examine the error string.

=head2 parser(\%config)

Instantiate a new parser object of the class whose name is denoted by
the package variable $PARSER (default: Template::Parser).  Returns
a reference to a newly instantiated parser object or undef on error.

=head2 provider(\%config)

Instantiate a new template provider object (default: Template::Provider).
Returns an object reference or undef on error, as above.

=head2 plugins(\%config)

Instantiate a new plugins provider object (default: Template::Plugins).
Returns an object reference or undef on error, as above.

=head2 filters(\%config)

Instantiate a new filter provider object (default: Template::Filters).
Returns an object reference or undef on error, as above.

=head2 stash(\%vars)

Instantiate a new stash object (default: Template::Templates) using the 
contents of the optional hash array passed by parameter as initial variable
definitions.  Returns an object reference or undef on error, as above.

=head2 context(\%config)

Instantiate a new template context object (default: Template::Context).
Returns an object reference or undef on error, as above.

=head2 service(\%config)

Instantiate a new template service object (default: Template::Service).
Returns an object reference or undef on error, as above.

=head2 instdir($dir)

Returns the root directory of the Template Toolkit installation under
which optional components are installed.  Any relative directory specified
as an argument will be appended to the returned directory.

    # e.g. returns '/usr/local/tt2'
    my $ttroot = Template::Config->instdir()
	|| die "$Template::Config::ERROR\n";

    # e.g. returns '/usr/local/tt2/templates'
    my $template = Template::Config->instdir('templates')
	|| die "$Template::Config::ERROR\n";

Returns undef and sets $Template::Config::ERROR appropriately if the 
optional components of the Template Toolkit have not been installed.
