NAME

Slackware::Slackget::Network::Message - The response object for Slackware::Slackget::Network class

VERSION

Version 1.0.0

SYNOPSIS

This class is the message object used by the Slackware::Slackget::Network class to return informations from the network connection.

This module is the evolution of the old Slackware::Slackget::Network::Response.

new

the constructor require no argument. But store every given argument in the object (which is a hashref).

        my $msg = new Slackware::Slackget::Network::Message ;

new_from_data

This is an alternative constructor to create a Slackware::Slackget::Network::Message with the whole slack-get protocol compatible data structure.

You must provide the following arguments :

        * an action id (integer)
        * a action (string)
        * some data

Here is a little example :

        my $msg = Slackware::Slackget::Network::Message->new(
                123456789,
                'search',
                @keywords,
        );

create_enveloppe

Create a base enveloppe for the SlackGetProtocol in the raw_data section. This method access directly to the object's data structure.

Be carefull not to use it on an already initialized object. Else all "raw_data" will be lost.

        $self = {
                action => 0,
                action_id => 0,
                raw_data => {
                                Enveloppe => {
                                        Action => {
                                                id => 0 ,
                                                content => 0,
                                        },
                                        Data => {},
                                }
                        }
        };
