METHODS
Constructors User::Identity::Archive->new([NAME], OPTIONS) Option --Defined in --Default description User::Identity::Item undef from undef name User::Identity::Item <required> parent User::Identity::Item undef . description => STRING . from => FILEHANDLE|FILENAME . name => STRING . parent => OBJECT Attributes $obj->description See "Attributes" in User::Identity::Item $obj->name([NEWNAME]) See "Attributes" in User::Identity::Item Collections $obj->add(COLLECTION, ROLE) See "Collections" in User::Identity::Item $obj->addCollection(OBJECT | ([TYPE], OPTIONS)) See "Collections" in User::Identity::Item $obj->collection(NAME) See "Collections" in User::Identity::Item $obj->find(COLLECTION, ROLE) See "Collections" in User::Identity::Item $obj->parent([PARENT]) See "Collections" in User::Identity::Item $obj->removeCollection(OBJECT|NAME) See "Collections" in User::Identity::Item $obj->type User::Identity::Archive->type See "Collections" in User::Identity::Item $obj->user See "Collections" in User::Identity::Item Access to the archive $obj->from(SOURCE, OPTIONS) Read definitions from the specified SOURCE, which usually can be a filehandle or filename. The syntax used in the information SOURCE is archiver dependent. Not all archivers implement "from()", so you may want to check with "UNIVERSAL::can()" beforehand. example: use User::Identity::Archive::Some; my $a = User::Identity::Archive::Some->new('xyz'); $a->from(*STDIN) if $a->can('from'); DIAGNOSTICS
Error: $object is not a collection. The first argument is an object, but not of a class which extends User::Identity::Collection. Error: Cannot load collection module for $type ($class). Either the specified $type does not exist, or that module named $class returns compilation errors. If the type as specified in the warning is not the name of a package, you specified a nickname which was not defined. Maybe you forgot the 'require' the package which defines the nickname. Error: Creation of a collection via $class failed. The $class did compile, but it was not possible to create an object of that class using the options you specified. Error: Don't know what type of collection you want to add. If you add a collection, it must either by a collection object or a list of options which can be used to create a collection object. In the latter case, the type of collection must be specified. Warning: No collection $name The collection with $name does not exist and can not be created. SEE ALSO
