NAME

6       Pipeline::Store - defines the interface for Pipeline store classes
7

SYNOPSIS

9         use Pipeline::Store; # interface class, does very little
10

DESCRIPTION

12       "Pipeline::Store" provides a constructor and a generic get/set inter‐
13       face for any class implementing a store to sit on a Pipeline.  Pipeline
14       stores are singletons inside the dispatch process.  Ie, if you attempt
15       to construct a pipeline store in between the dispatch method being
16       called on a pipeline segment and having the method return a value then
17       you will get the same store as that segments store() method.
18

METHODS

20       The Pipeline class inherits from the "Pipeline::Base" class and there‐
21       fore also has any additional methods that its superclass may have.
22
23       new()
24           The "new" method constructs a new Pipeline::Store object and calls
25           the "init" method.  If the transaction flat is set then it returns
26           the current store singleton.
27
28       init()
29           The "init" method is called by new() to do any construction-time
30           initialization of an object.
31
32       start_transaction
33           Sets the transaction flag, which makes the store object that this
34           is called on a singleton until end_transaction is called.
35
36       end_transaction
37           Clears the transaction flag, which lets you construct new pipeline
38           stores.
39
40       store( [ store ] )
41           The "store" method gets or sets the store in a Pipeline::Store
42           object.  Unless "init" is changed the store is set at construction
43           time to a hash reference.
44
45       get()
46           Does nothing in Pipeline::Store - exists as a placeholder for sub‐
47           classes.
48
49       set()
50           Does nothing in Pipeline::Store - exists as a placeholder for sub‐
51           classes.
