Handler libraries architecture
==============================

Handlers are build on rows of modules:

-  Applications or launchers that get the request and choose the right
   type *(Main, AuthBasic, ZimbraPreAuth,...)* and launch it *(may not
   inherits from other Handler::\* modules)*
-  Wrappers that call "type" library and platform "Main" (may all
   inherits from Platform::Main
-  Library types if needed *(may inherit from Main)*
-  Main: the main handler library

Since version 2.1, wrappers are autogenerated when undefined. Generated
code is simply:

.. code:: perl

   package Lemonldap::NG::Handler::Platform::Type;
   use base 'Lemonldap::NG::Handler::Lib::Type',
     'Lemonldap::NG::Handler::Platform::Main';
   1;
