NAME

       Params::Validate::Dummy - Stub for Params::Validate

SYNOPSIS

	 use Params::Validate::Dummy qw();
	 use Module::Optional qw(Params::Validate);

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides stub routines for those who don't have Params::Validate installed.

       For more details, please refer to the documentation for Params::Validate.

       The code here is just stub routines which do NOTHING at all, passing through any arguments in the API and prototypes of Params::Validate.
       In particular, the dummy stubs do not do defaulting, validation, untainting or anything else that Params::Validate does. If you need this
       functionality, either provide it yourself in the surrounding code, or don't use this module and insist that the real Params::Validate is
       installed.

   "validate", "validate_pos"
       The parameter list is passed through as a return value.

   "validate_with"
       Returns the value of the params option.

   "set_options", "validation_options"
       These do nothing at all.

   Data types: "SCALAR", "SCALARREF", "ARRAYREF", "HASHREF", "GLOB", "GLOBREF", "BOOLEAN", "CODEREF", "HANDLE", "OBJECT", "UNDEF", "UNKNOWN"
       In the Params::Validate module, these are constants implemented by subs that return numbers. This module implements the same functions.
