NAME
Getopt::Long::Descriptive::Opts - object representing command line switches VERSION
version 0.092 DESCRIPTION
This class is the base class of all $opt objects returned by Getopt::Long::Descriptive. In general, you do not want to think about this class, look at it, or alter it. Seriously, it's pretty dumb. Every call to "describe_options" will return a object of a new subclass of this class. It will have a method for the canonical name of each option possible given the option specifications. Method names beginning with an single underscore are public, and are named that way to avoid conflict with automatically generated methods. Methods with multiple underscores (in case you're reading the source) are private. METHODS
Achtung! All methods beginning with an underscore are experimental as of today, 2009-12-12. They are likely to be formally made permanent soon. _specified This method returns true if the given name was specified on the command line. For example, if @ARGS was ""--foo --bar 10"" and "baz" is defined by a default, "_specified" will return true for foo and bar, and false for baz. _specified_opts This method returns an opt object in which only explicitly specified values are defined. Values which were set by defaults will appear undef. _complete_opts This method returns the opts object with all values, including those set by defaults. It is probably not going to be very often-used. AUTHORS

NAME
Getopt::Long::Descriptive::Usage - the usage description for GLD VERSION
version 0.096 SYNOPSIS
use Getopt::Long::Descriptive; my ($opt, $usage) = describe_options( ... ); $usage->text; # complete usage message $usage->die; # die with usage message DESCRIPTION
This document only describes the methods of the Usage object. For information on how to use Getopt::Long::Descriptive, consult its documentation. METHODS
new my $usage = Getopt::Long::Descriptive::Usage->new(\%arg); You really don't need to call this. GLD will do it for you. Valid arguments are: options - an arrayref of options leader_text - the text that leads the usage; this may go away! text This returns the full text of the usage message. leader_text This returns the text that comes at the beginning of the usage message. option_text This returns the text describing the available options. warn This warns with the usage message. die This throws the usage message as an exception. $usage_obj->die(\%arg); Some arguments can be provided pre_text - text to be prepended to the usage message post_text - text to be appended to the usage message The "pre_text" and "post_text" arguments are concatenated with the usage message with no line breaks, so supply this if you need them.
