=head1 NAME

DNS::Config::File - Abstract class for file representation

=head1 SYNOPSIS

use DNS::Config::File;

my $file = new DNS::Config::File(
   'type' => 'default',
   'file' => $file_name_string
);

$file->parse($file_name_string);
$file->dump($fie_name_string);
$file->debug();

$file->config(new DNS::Config());


=head1 ABSTRACT

This class represents an abstract configuration file for a
domain name service daemon (DNS).


=head1 DESCRIPTION

This class, the file adaptor, knows how to write the information
to a file in a daemon specific format.

So far this class is strongly related to the ISCs Bind domain
name service daemon but it is inteded to get more generic in
upcoming releases. Your help is welcome.
