+Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe3 - Providing an alternate base object class
+
+=head1 VERSION
+
+version 2.0402
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+  package MyApp::Base;
+  use Moose;
+
+  extends 'Moose::Object';
+
+  before 'new' => sub { warn "Making a new " . $_[0] };
+
+  no Moose;
+
+  package MyApp::UseMyBase;
+  use Moose ();
+  use Moose::Exporter;
+
+  Moose::Exporter->setup_import_methods( also => 'Moose' );
+
+  sub init_meta {
+      shift;
+      return Moose->init_meta( @_, base_class => 'MyApp::Base' );
+  }
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+B<WARNING: Replacing the base class entirely, as opposed to applying roles to
+the base class, is strongly discouraged. This recipe is provided solely for
+reference when encountering older code that does this.>
+
+A common extension is to provide an alternate base class. One way to
+do that is to make a C<MyApp::Base> and add C<S<extends
+'MyApp::Base'>> to every class in your application. That's pretty
+tedious. Instead, you can create a Moose-alike module that sets the
+base object class to C<MyApp::Base> for you.
+
+Then, instead of writing C<S<use Moose>> you can write C<S<use
+MyApp::UseMyBase>>.
+
+In this particular example, our base class issues some debugging
+output every time a new object is created, but you can think of some
+more interesting things to do with your own base class.
+
+This uses the magic of L<Moose::Exporter>. When we call C<<
+Moose::Exporter->setup_import_methods( also => 'Moose' ) >> it builds
+C<import> and C<unimport> methods for you. The C<< also => 'Moose' >>
+bit says that we want to export everything that Moose does.
+
+The C<import> method that gets created will call our C<init_meta>
+method, passing it C<< for_caller => $caller >> as its
+arguments. The C<$caller> is set to the class that actually imported
+us in the first place.
+
+See the L<Moose::Exporter> docs for more details on its API.
+
+=for testing-SETUP use Test::Requires {
+    'Test::Output' => '0',
+};
+
+=head1 USING MyApp::UseMyBase
+
+To actually use our new base class, we simply use C<MyApp::UseMyBase>
+I<instead> of C<Moose>. We get all the Moose sugar plus our new base
+class.
+
+  package Foo;
+
+  use MyApp::UseMyBase;
+
+  has 'size' => ( is => 'rw' );
+
+  no MyApp::UseMyBase;
+
+=head1 CONCLUSION
+
+This is an awful lot of magic for a simple base class. You will often
+want to combine a metaclass trait with a base class extension, and
+that's when this technique is useful.
