#pod This method returns a new AddressBook.  Its implementation details are left up
#pod to the subclasses, but it must accept a hashref as its first argument.
#pod
#pod Valid arguments are:
#pod
#pod   addex - required; the App::Addex object using this address book
#pod
#pod =cut

sub new {
  my ($class, $arg) = @_;
  Carp::croak "no addex argument provided" unless $arg->{addex};
  bless { addex => $arg->{addex} } => $class;
}

#pod =method addex
#pod
#pod   my $addex = $addr_book->addex;
#pod
#pod This returns the App::Addex object with which the address book is associated.
#pod
#pod =cut

#pod =method entries
#pod
#pod   my @entries = $addex->entries;
#pod
#pod This method returns the entries in the address book as L<App::Addex::Entry>
#pod objects.  Its behavior in scalar context is not yet defined.
#pod
#pod This method should be implemented by a address-book-implementation-specific
#pod subclass.

App::Addex::AddressBook - the address book that addex will consult

=head1 VERSION

version 0.027

=head1 PERL VERSION SUPPORT

This module has the same support period as perl itself:  it supports the two
most recent versions of perl.  (That is, if the most recently released version
is v5.40, then this module should work on both v5.40 and v5.38.)

Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the
minimum required version will not be increased.  The version may be increased
for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower
the minimum required perl.
