=head1 NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::ClassHierarchies::ProhibitExplicitISA - Employ C<use base> instead of C<@ISA>.
=head1 AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core L<Perl::Critic> distribution.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Conway recommends employing C<use base qw(Foo)> instead of the usual
C<our @ISA = qw(Foo)> because the former happens at compile time and
the latter at runtime. The C<base> pragma also automatically loads
C<Foo> for you so you save a line of easily-forgotten code.
=head1 CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
