NAME
Palm::ToDo - Handler for Palm ToDo databases. SYNOPSIS
use Palm::ToDo; DESCRIPTION
The ToDo PDB handler is a helper class for the Palm::PDB package. It parses ToDo databases. AppInfo block The AppInfo block begins with standard category support. See Palm::StdAppInfo for details. Other fields include: $pdb->{appinfo}{dirty_appinfo} $pdb->{appinfo}{sortOrder} I don't know what these are. Sort block $pdb->{sort} This is a scalar, the raw data of the sort block. Records $record = $pdb->{records}[N] $record->{due_day} $record->{due_month} $record->{due_year} The due date of the ToDo item. If the item has no due date, these are undefined. $record->{completed} This is defined and true iff the item has been completed. $record->{priority} An integer. The priority of the item. $record->{description} A text string. The description of the item. $record->{note} A text string. The note attached to the item. Undefined if the item has no note. new $pdb = new Palm::ToDo; Create a new PDB, initialized with the various Palm::ToDo fields and an empty record list. Use this method if you're creating a ToDo PDB from scratch. new_Record $record = $pdb->new_Record; Creates a new ToDo record, with blank values for all of the fields. "new_Record" does not add the new record to $pdb. For that, you want "$pdb->append_Record". SOURCE CONTROL
