+Catalyst::DispatchType - DispatchType Base Class
 
-sub register_action { return; }
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+See L<Catalyst>.
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This is an abstract base class for Dispatch Types.
+
+From a code perspective, dispatch types are used to find which actions
+to call for a given request URL.  Website authors will typically work
+with them via subroutine names attributes; a description of dispatch
+at the attribute/URL level is given in L<Catalyst::Manual::Intro>.
+
+=head1 METHODS
+
+=head2 $self->list($c)
+
+abstract method, to be implemented by dispatchtypes. Called to display
+info in debug log.
+
+=cut
+
+sub list { }
+
+=head2 $self->match( $c, $path )
+
+abstract method, to be implemented by dispatchtypes. Returns true if the
+dispatch type matches the given path
+
+=cut
+
+sub match { die "Abstract method!" }
+
+=head2 $self->register( $c, $action )
+
+abstract method, to be implemented by dispatchtypes. Takes a
+context object and a L<Catalyst::Action> object.
+
+Should return true if it registers something, or false otherwise.
+
+=cut
+
+sub register { }
+
+=head2 $self->uri_for_action( $action, \@captures )
+
+abstract method, to be implemented by dispatchtypes. Takes a
+L<Catalyst::Action> object and an arrayref of captures, and should
+return either a URI part which if placed in $c->req->path would cause
+$self->match to match this action and set $c->req->captures to the supplied
+arrayref, or undef if unable to do so.
+
+=cut
+
+sub uri_for_action { }
+
+=head2 $self->expand_action
+
+Default fallback, returns nothing. See L<Catalyst::Dispatcher> for more info
+about expand_action.

+
+sub expand_action { }
