sms::send::driver

SMS::Send::Driver(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				    SMS::Send::Driver(3pm)

NAME

       SMS::Send::Driver - Base class for SMS::Send drivers

DESCRIPTION

       The "SMS::Send::Driver" class provides an abstract base class for all SMS::Send driver classes.

       At this time it does not provide any implementation code for drivers (although this may change in the future) with the exception of some
       methods provided to trigger "does not implement method" errors.

       However, it does serve as something you should sub-class your driver from to identify it as a SMS::Send driver.

       Please note that if your driver class not not return true for "$driver-"isa('SMS::Send::Driver')> then the SMS::Send constructor will
       refuse to use your class as a driver.

METHODS

   new
       The "new" constructor is required to be implemented by your driver subclass.

       It recieves a set of arbitrary paired params. The values of these params are assumed to be driver-specific (this is expected to change).

       If your driver will need to login to some system, locate hardware, or do some other form of initialisation to validate the SMS delivery
       mechanism exists, it should do so in "new".

       Should return a new SMS::Send::Driver-subclass object, or die on error.

   send_sms
       The "send_sms" method is required to be implemented by your driver subclass.

       It recieves a set of param pairs as documented in SMS::Send.

       Should return true for either success or fire-and-forget with unknown result, defined-but-false ('' or 0) for a failed message send, or die
       on a fatal error.
