=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
Exporter - Implements default import method for modules
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
In module ModuleName.pm:
|
|
|
|
package ModuleName;
|
|
require Exporter;
|
|
@ISA = qw(Exporter);
|
|
|
|
@EXPORT = qw(...); # symbols to export by default
|
|
@EXPORT_OK = qw(...); # symbols to export on request
|
|
%EXPORT_TAGS = tag => [...]; # define names for sets of symbols
|
|
|
|
In other files which wish to use ModuleName:
|
|
|
|
use ModuleName; # import default symbols into my package
|
|
|
|
use ModuleName qw(...); # import listed symbols into my package
|
|
|
|
use ModuleName (); # do not import any symbols
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The Exporter module implements a default C<import> method which
|
|
many modules choose to inherit rather than implement their own.
|
|
|
|
Perl automatically calls the C<import> method when processing a
|
|
C<use> statement for a module. Modules and C<use> are documented
|
|
in L<perlfunc> and L<perlmod>. Understanding the concept of
|
|
modules and how the C<use> statement operates is important to
|
|
understanding the Exporter.
|
|
|
|
=head2 Selecting What To Export
|
|
|
|
Do B<not> export method names!
|
|
|
|
Do B<not> export anything else by default without a good reason!
|
|
|
|
Exports pollute the namespace of the module user. If you must export
|
|
try to use @EXPORT_OK in preference to @EXPORT and avoid short or
|
|
common symbol names to reduce the risk of name clashes.
|
|
|
|
Generally anything not exported is still accessible from outside the
|
|
module using the ModuleName::item_name (or $blessed_ref-E<gt>method)
|
|
syntax. By convention you can use a leading underscore on names to
|
|
informally indicate that they are 'internal' and not for public use.
|
|
|
|
(It is actually possible to get private functions by saying:
|
|
|
|
my $subref = sub { ... };
|
|
&$subref;
|
|
|
|
But there's no way to call that directly as a method, since a method
|
|
must have a name in the symbol table.)
|
|
|
|
As a general rule, if the module is trying to be object oriented
|
|
then export nothing. If it's just a collection of functions then
|
|
@EXPORT_OK anything but use @EXPORT with caution.
|
|
|
|
Other module design guidelines can be found in L<perlmod>.
|
|
|
|
=head2 Specialised Import Lists
|
|
|
|
If the first entry in an import list begins with !, : or / then the
|
|
list is treated as a series of specifications which either add to or
|
|
delete from the list of names to import. They are processed left to
|
|
right. Specifications are in the form:
|
|
|
|
[!]name This name only
|
|
[!]:DEFAULT All names in @EXPORT
|
|
[!]:tag All names in $EXPORT_TAGS{tag} anonymous list
|
|
[!]/pattern/ All names in @EXPORT and @EXPORT_OK which match
|
|
|
|
A leading ! indicates that matching names should be deleted from the
|
|
list of names to import. If the first specification is a deletion it
|
|
is treated as though preceded by :DEFAULT. If you just want to import
|
|
extra names in addition to the default set you will still need to
|
|
include :DEFAULT explicitly.
|
|
|
|
e.g., Module.pm defines:
|
|
|
|
@EXPORT = qw(A1 A2 A3 A4 A5);
|
|
@EXPORT_OK = qw(B1 B2 B3 B4 B5);
|
|
%EXPORT_TAGS = (T1 => [qw(A1 A2 B1 B2)], T2 => [qw(A1 A2 B3 B4)]);
|
|
|
|
Note that you cannot use tags in @EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK.
|
|
Names in EXPORT_TAGS must also appear in @EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK.
|
|
|
|
An application using Module can say something like:
|
|
|
|
use Module qw(:DEFAULT :T2 !B3 A3);
|
|
|
|
Other examples include:
|
|
|
|
use Socket qw(!/^[AP]F_/ !SOMAXCONN !SOL_SOCKET);
|
|
use POSIX qw(:errno_h :termios_h !TCSADRAIN !/^EXIT/);
|
|
|
|
Remember that most patterns (using //) will need to be anchored
|
|
with a leading ^, e.g., C</^EXIT/> rather than C</EXIT/>.
|
|
|
|
You can say C<BEGIN { $Exporter::Verbose=1 }> to see how the
|
|
specifications are being processed and what is actually being imported
|
|
into modules.
|
|
|
|
=head2 Exporting without using Export's import method
|
|
|
|
Exporter has a special method, 'export_to_level' which is used in situations
|
|
where you can't directly call Export's import method. The export_to_level
|
|
method looks like:
|
|
|
|
MyPackage->export_to_level($where_to_export, @what_to_export);
|
|
|
|
where $where_to_export is an integer telling how far up the calling stack
|
|
to export your symbols, and @what_to_export is an array telling what
|
|
symbols *to* export (usually this is @_).
|
|
|
|
For example, suppose that you have a module, A, which already has an
|
|
import function:
|
|
|
|
package A;
|
|
|
|
@ISA = qw(Exporter);
|
|
@EXPORT_OK = qw ($b);
|
|
|
|
sub import
|
|
{
|
|
$A::b = 1; # not a very useful import method
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
and you want to Export symbol $A::b back to the module that called
|
|
package A. Since Exporter relies on the import method to work, via
|
|
inheritance, as it stands Exporter::import() will never get called.
|
|
Instead, say the following:
|
|
|
|
package A;
|
|
@ISA = qw(Exporter);
|
|
@EXPORT_OK = qw ($b);
|
|
|
|
sub import
|
|
{
|
|
$A::b = 1;
|
|
A->export_to_level(1, @_);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
This will export the symbols one level 'above' the current package - ie: to
|
|
the program or module that used package A.
|
|
|
|
Note: Be careful not to modify '@_' at all before you call export_to_level
|
|
- or people using your package will get very unexplained results!
|
|
|
|
|
|
=head2 Module Version Checking
|
|
|
|
The Exporter module will convert an attempt to import a number from a
|
|
module into a call to $module_name-E<gt>require_version($value). This can
|
|
be used to validate that the version of the module being used is
|
|
greater than or equal to the required version.
|
|
|
|
The Exporter module supplies a default require_version method which
|
|
checks the value of $VERSION in the exporting module.
|
|
|
|
Since the default require_version method treats the $VERSION number as
|
|
a simple numeric value it will regard version 1.10 as lower than
|
|
1.9. For this reason it is strongly recommended that you use numbers
|
|
with at least two decimal places, e.g., 1.09.
|
|
|
|
=head2 Managing Unknown Symbols
|
|
|
|
In some situations you may want to prevent certain symbols from being
|
|
exported. Typically this applies to extensions which have functions
|
|
or constants that may not exist on some systems.
|
|
|
|
The names of any symbols that cannot be exported should be listed
|
|
in the C<@EXPORT_FAIL> array.
|
|
|
|
If a module attempts to import any of these symbols the Exporter
|
|
will give the module an opportunity to handle the situation before
|
|
generating an error. The Exporter will call an export_fail method
|
|
with a list of the failed symbols:
|
|
|
|
@failed_symbols = $module_name->export_fail(@failed_symbols);
|
|
|
|
If the export_fail method returns an empty list then no error is
|
|
recorded and all the requested symbols are exported. If the returned
|
|
list is not empty then an error is generated for each symbol and the
|
|
export fails. The Exporter provides a default export_fail method which
|
|
simply returns the list unchanged.
|
|
|
|
Uses for the export_fail method include giving better error messages
|
|
for some symbols and performing lazy architectural checks (put more
|
|
symbols into @EXPORT_FAIL by default and then take them out if someone
|
|
actually tries to use them and an expensive check shows that they are
|
|
usable on that platform).
|
|
|
|
=head2 Tag Handling Utility Functions
|
|
|
|
Since the symbols listed within %EXPORT_TAGS must also appear in either
|
|
@EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK, two utility functions are provided which allow
|
|
you to easily add tagged sets of symbols to @EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK:
|
|
|
|
%EXPORT_TAGS = (foo => [qw(aa bb cc)], bar => [qw(aa cc dd)]);
|
|
|
|
Exporter::export_tags('foo'); # add aa, bb and cc to @EXPORT
|
|
Exporter::export_ok_tags('bar'); # add aa, cc and dd to @EXPORT_OK
|
|
|
|
Any names which are not tags are added to @EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK
|
|
unchanged but will trigger a warning (with C<-w>) to avoid misspelt tags
|
|
names being silently added to @EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK. Future versions
|
|
may make this a fatal error.
