File::Find::Object::Result(3pm) 			User Contributed Perl Documentation			   File::Find::Object::Result(3pm)

NAME
File::Find::Object::Result - a result class for File::Find::Object DESCRIPTION
This is a class returning a single File::Find::Object result as returned by its next_obj() method. METHODS
File::Find::Object::Result->new({%args}); Initializes a new object from %args. For internal use. $result->base() Returns the base directory from which searching began. $result->path() Returns the full path of the result. As such "$ffo->next_obj()->path()" is equivalent to "$ffo->next()" . $result->is_dir() Returns true if the result refers to a directory. $result->is_file() Returns true if the result refers to a plain file (equivalent to the Perl "-f" operator). $result->is_link() Returns true if the result is a symbolic link. $result->dir_components() The components of the directory part of the path starting from base() (also the full path if the result is a directory) as an array reference. $result->basename() Returns the basename of the file (if it is a file and not a directory.) Otherwise - undef(). $result->full_components() Returns the full components of the result with the basename if it is a file. $result->stat_ret() The return value of "stat" in perlfunc for the result, placed inside an array reference. This is calculated by File::Find::Object and kept here for convenience and for internal use. SEE ALSO
