Sort::Key::Types(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				     Sort::Key::Types(3pm)

NAME
Sort::Key::Types - handle Sort::Key data types SYNOPSIS
use Sort::Key::Types qw(register_type); register_type(Color => sub { $_->R, $_->G, $_->B }, qw(int, int, int)); # you better # use Sort::Key::Register ... DESCRIPTION
The Sort::Key family of modules can be extended to support new key types using this module (or the more friendly Sort::Key::Register). FUNCTIONS The following functions are provided: Sort::Key::register_type($name, &gensubkeys, @subkeystypes) registers a new datatype named $name defining how to convert it to a multikey. &gensubkeys should convert the object of type $name passed on $_ to a list of values composing the multikey. @subkeystypes is the list of types for the generated multikeys. For instance: Sort::Key::Types::register_type 'Person', sub { $_->surname, $_->name, $_->middlename }, qw(str str str); Sort::Key::Types::register_type 'Color', sub { $_->R, $_->G, $_->B }, qw(int int int); Once a datatype has been registered it can be used in the same way as types supported natively, even for defining new types, i.e.: Sort::Key::Types::register_type 'Family', sub { $_->father, $_->mother }, qw(Person Person); SEE ALSO
