NAME

       Audio::File::Type - represents an audio filetype

DESCRIPTION

       An instance of an object inherited from Audio::File::Type is returned by the constructor of Audio::File. This object currently provides
       access to the audio files information like its audio properties (bitrate, sample rate, number of channels, ...) and the data stored in the
       files tag, but also providing access to the raw audio data and other information should be easy to be implemented.

METHODS

   new
       Constructor. In fact you don't need to use it. Please use Audio::File which will call the appropriate constructor corresponding to the
       files type.

   init
       This method will be called by the constructor. It's empty by default and should be overwritten by inheriting subclasses to initialize
       themselfes.

   name
       Returns the name of the audio file.

   is_readable
       Checks whether the file is readable or not. At the moment it's only used by the constructor, but it will be more usefull with later
       versions of Audio::File.

   is_writeable
       Checks whether the file is writeable or not. At the moment you'll probably don't need to call this method, but it'll be more usefull as
       soon as changing the audio file is implemented.

   tag
       Returns a reference to the files tag object. See the documentation of Audio::File::Tag to learn about what the tag object does.

   audio_properties
       Returns a reference to the files audio properties object. See the documentation of Audio::File::AudioProperties to get information about
       what the audio properties object does.

   save
       Saves the audio file. This is not yet implemented but it should remember me to do it at some time.. :-)

   type
       Returns the files type.

TODO

       implement changing the file
