Base class for Template::Declare views

## NAME

Jifty::View::Declare::BaseClass - Base class for Template::Declare views

## DESCRIPTION

This class provides a base class for your Template::Declare derived view classes.

```
    package TestApp::View;
    use Jifty::View::Declare -base;
    __PACKAGE__->use_mason_wrapper;
```

If you don't use mason then you can define a `"wrapper"` function in the view class to override default page layouts. Default TD wrapper defined in Jifty::View::Declare::Helpers.

## ATTRIBUTES

This function allows a developer to mark a Template::Declare template as static (unchanging), so that the compiled version can be cached on the client side and inserted with javascript.

### Action
