OVERVIEW

The premise is that each file is a repository of zero or more resources. Each resource contains zero or more lines of text, which ack will process.

For the basic text file that ack handles now, it's simple: Each text file is a repository that has one resource. The repository and resource are the same.

You can look at Repository.pm and Resource.pm and see how I'm calling it. It's really simple, and there's a lot of overhead.

Maybe now's the time for me to work on Plugin.pod. :-)

STRUCTURE

Say you have code that will let you search through DLL files.

App/Ack/Plugin/DLL.pm

    package App::Ack::Plugin::DLL;


    package App::Ack::Resource::DLL;

    our @ISA = qw( App::Ack::Resource );


    package App::Ack::Repository::DLL;

    our @ISA = qw( App::Ack::Repository );
