Pod::Simple::PullParserPerltProgrammers RePod::Simple::PullParserStartToken(3)NAMEPod::Simple::PullParserStartToken-- start-tokens from
Pod::Simple::PullParser
SYNOPSIS
(See Pod::Simple::PullParser)
DESCRIPTION
When you do $parser->get_token on a Pod::Simple::PullParser object, you
might get an object of this class.
This is a subclass of Pod::Simple::PullParserToken and inherits all its
methods, and adds these methods:
$token->tagname
This returns the tagname for this start-token object. For example,
parsing a "=head1 ..." line will give you a start-token with the
tagname of "head1", token(s) for its content, and then an end-token
with the tagname of "head1".
$token->tagname(somestring)
This changes the tagname for this start-token object. You probably
won't need to do this.
$token->tag(...)
A shortcut for $token->tagname(...)
$token->is_tag(somestring) or $token->is_tagname(somestring)
These are shortcuts for "$token->tag() eq somestring"
$token->attr(attrname)
This returns the value of the attrname attribute for this start-
token object, or undef.
For example, parsing a L<Foo/"Bar"> link will produce a start-token
with a "to" attribute with the value "Foo", a "type" attribute with
the value "pod", and a "section" attribute with the value "Bar".
$token->attr(attrname, newvalue)
This sets the attrname attribute for this start-token object to
newvalue. You probably won't need to do this.
$token->attr_hash
This returns the hashref that is the attribute set for this start-
token. This is useful if (for example) you want to ask what all
the attributes are -- you can just do "keys %{$token->attr_hash}"
You're unlikely to ever need to construct an object of this class for
yourself, but if you want to, call
"Pod::Simple::PullParserStartToken->new( tagname, attrhash )"
