NAME
OLE::Storage::Var - Variable handling for properties
$Revision: 1.1.1.1 $ $Date: 1998/02/25 21:13:00 $
SYNOPSIS
use OLE::Storage::Var; $Var = new Var; $Property = $Var -> property (_$buf, $o||_$o [,$type]) $Handler = $Var -> handler ()
DESCRIPTION
This package is governing the two packages OLE::Stor
age::Property and OLE::Storage::Handler. It manages the
binary data of properties. OLE::Storage::Property uses
methods of $Var to store and convert properties.
OLE::Storage::Var will probably be changed very much in
close future. So what a luck, that:
Normally the only thing you will have to do with this
package is to create an instance either via package
OLE::Storage with "$Var = OLE::Storage->NewVar", or with
same method of package OLE::PropertySet. This $Var you
need to pass to OLE::Storage->open calls.
Note: If you should to have to create new properties by
your own, do it always via this $Var interface.
