Velpon loader
=============

[](#velpon-loader)

Velpon loader glues classes defined in a variable stack together. See  for the origin of the name.

Please not that this package is able to *initialize* an arbitrary class stack for a variable defined stack. It is **not able to change** already initialized (constructed) classes.

This package is meant to be used in a BC manner for existing projects implementing this style of loading. WARNING: It is strongly discouraged to use this for any new projects. Please use services, events and the like to be able to 'plug' into behavior.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require gisostallenberg/velpon-loader

    'plugin_two' => [
        'ClassToPlug' => 'ClassToPlugPluginTwo'
    ],
    'plugin_one' => [
        'ClassToPlug' => 'ClassToPlugPluginOne'
    ],
