NAME
Test::Inline::Content - Test::Inline 2 Content Handlers DESCRIPTION
One problem with the initial versions of Test::Inline 2 was the method by which it generated the script contents. "Test::Inline::Content" provides a basic API by which more sophisticated extensions can be written to control the content of the generated scripts. METHODS
new A default implementation of the "new" method is provided that takes no parameters and creates a default (empty) object. Returns a new "Test::Inline::Content" object. process $Inline $Script The "process" method does the work of generating the script content. It takes as argument the parent Test::Inline object, and the completed Test::Inline::Script object for which the file is to be generated. The default implementation returns only an empty script that dies with an appropriate error message. Returns the content of the script as a string, or "undef" on error. SUPPORT
