Mac::AETE::Parser(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Mac::AETE::Parser(3) NAME
Mac::AETE::Parser - parses Macintosh AETE and AEUT resources. SYNOPSIS
use Mac::AETE::Parser; use Mac::AETE::Format::Dictionary; $aete = Parser->new($aete_handle, $name); $formatter = Dictionary->new; $aete->set_format($formatter); $aete->read; $aete->write; DESCRIPTION
The Parser module serves as a base class for the Mac::AETE::App and Mac::AETE::Dialect modules. Methods new Example: ($aete_handle is a handle containing a valid AETE resource. $name is the name of the application.) use Mac::AETE::Parser; use Mac::AETE::Format::Dictionary; $aete = Parser->new($aete_handle, $name); read Reads the data contained in the AETE resource or handle. Example: $aete->read; set_format Sets the output formatter used during by the 'write' subroutine. Example: $formatter = Dictionary->new; $aete->set_format($formatter); copy Copies all suites from one Parser object into another. Example: $aete2 = Parser->new($aete_handle2, $another_name); $aete->copy($aete2); copies the suites from $aete2 into $aete. merge Merges suites from one Parser object into another. Only the suites that exist in both objects will be replaced. Example: $aete3 = Parser->new($aete_handle2, $another_name); $aete->merge($aete3); write Prints the contents of the AETE or AEUT resource using the current formatter. $aete->write; INHERITANCE
