0.1.2 DESCRIPTION
RoPkg::Simba::Exclude is the class used by simba to manipulate a exclude list. It has the basic sql methods (inherited from RoPkg::DBObject). SYNOPSIS
!#/usr/bin/perl use RoPkg::DB; use RoPkg::Simba::Exclude; sub main { my $dbp = new RoPkg::DB(); $dbp->Add('dbi:mysql:database=mysql;host=localhost', 'root', '', 'local'); my $c = new RoPkg::Simba::Exclude(db => $dbp, db_method => 'db_local'); $c->id(1); $c->Load(); } main(); SUBROUTINES

Please read the section in which the method is described to find out more information about exceptions. new() The class constructor. At this moment, it just calls RoPkg::DBObject->new() . Please read the RoPkg::DBObject manual page for more information about the new() parameters. table() Returns the name of the exclude lists database table. ExList() get/set the excluded items. When set behaviour is selected, the exclude list must be passed to the method. The exclude list must be set before adding the new exclude list to database. AddItems(@new_items) Add @new_items to the list of excluded items and returns the new number of excluded items. GetItems() Returns the list of excluded items. In scalar context returns the number of excluded items The following methods are get/set methods for all fields of a mirror. *) id *) MirrorID *) CommandID Add() Adds the mirror to the database. This method is a wrapper for RoPkg::DBObject::SQL_Insert . On success 0 is returned. On error, DBI exception is raised. Delete() Deletes the current exclude list from the database. Before calling this method, you should set the id of the exclude list . If you don't set the id Param::Missing exception is raised. On database operation success, 0 is returned. On database error, DBI exception is raised. Update() Update the current exclude list object with the database. Before calling this method, you should set the id of the exclude list . If you don't set the id Param::Missing exception is raised. On database operation success, 0 is returned. On database error, DBI exception is raised. Load() Load the exclude list from the database, into the current object. Before calling this method you should have set id or MirrorID and CommandID. If none are found, then Param::Missing is raised. On database operation success 0 is returned. On database error, DBI exception is raised. DIAGNOSTICS
