( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Thanks jandrew For the tip on using triggers. It is certainly a step in the right direction as it will allow me to move all the binary unpacking code into one method, that will populate all the fields in the class at once.

For my project, I am only relay interested in reading binary data, not writing it. If I where trying to write it as well, then I am not sure that using writers would be helpful, as it looks like that will just create the same problem of lots of very similar methods with very similar boilerplate code. I think an easier approach would be to create a custom reader method on rawDataBlock that will re-construct the binary data by packing all the field members.

Also, thanks for the link to merlyn's tutorials. I will certainly read them. One problem I have with Moose is there is too much documentation, and it can be hard to find a simplified introduction.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
