Pod::Simple::LinkSection - represent "section" attributes of L codes
# a long story
Perl Programmers Reference Guide Pod::Simple::LinkSection(3) NAME Pod::Simple::LinkSection -- represent "section" attributes of L codes SYNOPSIS # a long story DESCRIPTION This class is not of interest to general users. Pod::Simple uses this class for representing the value of the "section" attribute of "L" start-element events. Most applications can just use the normal stringification of objects of this class; they stringify to just the text content of the section, such as "foo" for "L<Stuff/foo>", and "bar" for "L<Stuff/bI<ar>>". However, anyone particularly interested in getting the full value of the treelet, can just traverse the content of the treeleet @$treelet_object. To wit: % perl -MData::Dumper -e "use base qw(Pod::Simple::Methody); sub start_L { print Dumper($_[1]{'section'} ) } __PACKAGE__->new->parse_string_document('=head1 L<Foo/bI<ar>baz>>') " Output: $VAR1 = bless( [ '', {}, 'b', bless( [ 'I', {}, 'ar' ], 'Pod::Simple::LinkSection' ), 'baz' ], 'Pod::Simple::LinkSection' ); But stringify it and you get just the text content: % perl -MData::Dumper -e "use base qw(Pod::Simple::Methody); sub start_L { print Dumper( '' . $_[1]{'section'} ) } __PACKAGE__->new->parse_string_document('=head1 L<Foo/bI<ar>baz>>') " Output: $VAR1 = 'barbaz'; ATTRIBUTES See attributes(7) for descriptions of the following attributes: +---------------+-----------------------+ |ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +---------------+-----------------------+ |Availability | runtime/perl-532 | +---------------+-----------------------+ |Stability | Pass-through volatile | +---------------+-----------------------+ SEE ALSO Pod::Simple SUPPORT Questions or discussion about POD and Pod::Simple should be sent to the pod-people@perl.org mail list.
