Net::DBus::Binding::Value(3pm)
NAME
Net::DBus::Binding::Value - Strongly typed data value
SYNOPSIS
# Import the convenience functions
use Net::DBus qw(:typing);
# Call a method with passing an int32
$object->doit(dint32("3"));
DESCRIPTION
This module provides a simple wrapper around a raw Perl value,
associating an explicit DBus type with the value. This is used in cases
where a client is communicating with a server which does not provide
introspection data, but for which the basic data types are not
sufficient. This class should not be used directly, rather the
convenience functions in Net::DBus be called.
METHODS
- my $value = Net::DBus::Binding::Value->new($type, $value);
- Creates a wrapper for the perl value $value marking it as having
the dbus data type $type. It is not neccessary to call this method directly, instead the data typing methods in the Net::DBus object
should be used. - my $raw = $value->value
- Returns the raw perl value wrapped by this object
- my $type = $value->type
- Returns the dbus data type this value is marked as having
