This module provides a set of utility functions. Many of these
functions are intended for use in Mouse itself or MouseX modules, but
some of them may be useful for use in your own code.

.IX Subsection "Mouse::Util::is_class_loaded($classname) -> Bool"
.PP
Returns whether \fI\f(CI$classname\fI\fR is actually loaded or not.
It uses a heuristic which involves checking for the existence of
\&\f(CW$VERSION\fR, \f(CW@ISA\fR, and any locally-defined method.
.PP
\fI\f(CI\*(C`Mouse::Util::load_class($classname) \-> ClassName\*(C'\fI\fR
.IX Subsection "Mouse::Util::load_class($classname) -> ClassName"
.PP
This will load a given \fI\f(CI$classname\fI\fR (or die if it is not loadable).
This function can be used in place of tricks like
\&\f(CW\*(C`eval "use $module ()"\*(C'\fR or using \f(CW\*(C`require\*(C'\fR.
