+
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+C<Class::Struct> exports a single function, C<struct>.
+Given a list of element names and types, and optionally
+a class name, C<struct> creates a Perl 5 class that implements
+a "struct-like" data structure.
+
+The new class is given a constructor method, C<new>, for creating
+struct objects.
+
+Each element in the struct data has an accessor method, which is
+used to assign to the element and to fetch its value. The
+default accessor can be overridden by declaring a C<sub> of the
+same name in the package. (See Example 2.)
+
+Each element's type can be scalar, array, hash, or class.
+
+
+=head2 The C<struct()> function
+
+The C<struct> function has three forms of parameter-list.
+
+ struct( CLASS_NAME => [ ELEMENT_LIST ]);
+ struct( CLASS_NAME => { ELEMENT_LIST });
+ struct( ELEMENT_LIST );
+
+The first and second forms explicitly identify the name of the
+class being created. The third form assumes the current package
+name as the class name.
+
+An object of a class created by the first and third forms is
+based on an array, whereas an object of a class created by the
+second form is based on a hash. The array-based forms will be
+somewhat faster and smaller; the hash-based forms are more
+flexible.
+
+The class created by C<struct> must not be a subclass of another
+class other than C<UNIVERSAL>.
+
+A function named C<new> must not be explicitly defined in a class
+created by C<struct>.
+
+The I<ELEMENT_LIST> has the form
+
+ NAME => TYPE, ...
+
+Each name-type pair declares one element of the struct. Each
+element name will be defined as an accessor method unless a
+method by that name is explicitly defined; in the latter case, a
+warning is issued if the warning flag (B<-w>) is set.
+
+
+=head2 Element Types and Accessor Methods
+
+The four element types -- scalar, array, hash, and class -- are
+represented by strings -- C<'$'>, C<'@'>, C<'%'>, and a class name --
+optionally preceded by a C<'*'>.
+
+The accessor method provided by C<struct> for an element depends
+on the declared type of the element.
+
+=over
+
+=item Scalar (C<'$'> or C<'*$'>)
+
+The element is a scalar, and is initialized to C<undef>.
+
+The accessor's argument, if any, is assigned to the element.
+
+If the element type is C<'$'>, the value of the element (after
+assignment) is returned. If the element type is C<'*$'>, a reference
+to the element is returned.
+
+=item Array (C<'@'> or C<'*@'>)
+
+The element is an array, initialized to C<()>.
+
+With no argument, the accessor returns a reference to the
+element's whole array.
+
+With one or two arguments, the first argument is an index
+specifying one element of the array; the second argument, if
+present, is assigned to the array element. If the element type
+is C<'@'>, the accessor returns the array element value. If the
+element type is C<'*@'>, a reference to the array element is
+returned.
+
+=item Hash (C<'%'> or C<'*%'>)
+
+The element is a hash, initialized to C<()>.
+
+With no argument, the accessor returns a reference to the
+element's whole hash.
+
+With one or two arguments, the first argument is a key specifying
+one element of the hash; the second argument, if present, is
+assigned to the hash element. If the element type is C<'%'>, the
+accessor returns the hash element value. If the element type is
+C<'*%'>, a reference to the hash element is returned.
+
+=item Class (C<'Class_Name'> or C<'*Class_Name'>)
+
+The element's value must be a reference blessed to the named
+class or to one of its subclasses. The element is initialized to
+the result of calling the C<new> constructor of the named class.
+
+The accessor's argument, if any, is assigned to the element. The
+accessor will C<croak> if this is not an appropriate object
+reference.
+
+If the element type does not start with a C<'*'>, the accessor
+returns the element value (after assignment). If the element type
+starts with a C<'*'>, a reference to the element itself is returned.
+
+=back
+
+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+=over
+
+=item Example 1
+
+Giving a struct element a class type that is also a struct is how
+structs are nested. Here, C<timeval> represents a time (seconds and
+microseconds), and C<rusage> has two elements, each of which is of
+type C<timeval>.
+
+ use Class::Struct;
+
+ struct( rusage => {
+ ru_utime => timeval, # seconds
+ ru_stime => timeval, # microseconds
+ });
+
+ struct( timeval => [
+ tv_secs => '$',
+ tv_usecs => '$',
+ ]);
+
+ # create an object:
+ my $t = new rusage;
+ # $t->ru_utime and $t->ru_stime are objects of type timeval.
+
+ # set $t->ru_utime to 100.0 sec and $t->ru_stime to 5.0 sec.
+ $t->ru_utime->tv_secs(100);
+ $t->ru_utime->tv_usecs(0);
+ $t->ru_stime->tv_secs(5);
+ $t->ru_stime->tv_usecs(0);
+
+
+=item Example 2
+
+An accessor function can be redefined in order to provide
+additional checking of values, etc. Here, we want the C<count>
+element always to be nonnegative, so we redefine the C<count>
+accessor accordingly.
+
+ package MyObj;
+ use Class::Struct;
+
+ # declare the struct
+ struct ( 'MyObj', { count => '$', stuff => '%' } );
+
+ # override the default accessor method for 'count'
+ sub count {
+ my $self = shift;
+ if ( @_ ) {
+ die 'count must be nonnegative' if $_[0] < 0;
+ $self->{'count'} = shift;
+ warn "Too many args to count" if @_;
+ }
+ return $self->{'count'};
+ }
+
+ package main;
+ $x = new MyObj;
+ print "\$x->count(5) = ", $x->count(5), "\n";
+ # prints '$x->count(5) = 5'
+
+ print "\$x->count = ", $x->count, "\n";
+ # prints '$x->count = 5'
+
+ print "\$x->count(-5) = ", $x->count(-5), "\n";
+ # dies due to negative argument!
+
+

+ Use of struct() in a subclass prohibited.
+ User definition of accessor allowed.
+ Treatment of '*' in element types corrected.
+ Treatment of classes as element types corrected.
+ Class name to struct() made optional.
