=head1 NAME

Pipeline::Store - defines the interface for Pipeline store classes

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Pipeline::Store; # interface class, does very little

=head1 DESCRIPTION

C provides a constructor and a generic get/set interface
for any class implementing a store to sit on a Pipeline.  Pipeline stores
are singletons inside the dispatch process.  Ie, if you attempt to construct
a pipeline store in between the dispatch method being called on a pipeline
segment and having the method return a value then you will get the same
store as that segments store() method.

=head1 METHODS

The Pipeline class inherits from the C class and therefore
also has any additional methods that its superclass may have.

=over 4

=item new()

The C method constructs a new Pipeline::Store object and calls
the C method.  If the transaction flat is set then it returns
the current store singleton.

=item init()

The C method is called by new() to do any construction-time initialization
of an object.

=item start_transaction

Sets the transaction flag, which makes the store object that this is called on a
singleton until end_transaction is called.

=item end_transaction

Clears the transaction flag, which lets you construct new pipeline stores.

=item store( [ store ] )

The C method gets or sets the store in a Pipeline::Store object.  Unless C
is changed the store is set at construction time to a hash reference.

=item get()

Does nothing in Pipeline::Store - exists as a placeholder for subclasses.

=item set()

Does nothing in Pipeline::Store - exists as a placeholder for subclasses.
