15 This module is used for manipulating libexacct(3LIB) Group objects. A
16 libexacct Group object is represented as an opaque reference blessed
17 into the Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object::Group class, which is a subclass
18 of the Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object class. The Items within a Group are
19 stored inside a Perl array. A reference to the array can be accessed
20 with the inherited value() method. The individual Items within a Group
21 can be manipulated with the normal Perl array syntax and operators. All
22 data elements of the array must be derived from the
23 Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object class. Group objects can also be nested
24 inside each other simply by adding an existing Group as a data Item.
25 Constants

31 Class methods
33 Class methods include those inherited from the
34 Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object base class, plus the following:
35 new($catalog, @objects) This method creates and returns a new
37 Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object::Group. The
38 catalog tag can be either an integer or a
39 Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Catalog. The catalog
40 tag should be a valid catalog tag for a Perl
41 exacct Group object. The @objects parameter
42 is a list of Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object to
43 be stored inside the Group. A copy of all
44 the passed Items is taken and any Group
45 objects are recursively copied. The contents
46 of the returned Group object can be accessed
47 with the array returned by the value method.
48 Object methods
51 as_hash() This method returns the contents of the group as a
52 hash reference. It uses the string value of each
53 item's catalog ID as the hash entry key and the scalar
54 value returned by value() as the hash entry value.
55 This form should be used if there are no duplicate
56 catalog tags in the group.
57 This method and its companion as_hashlist() are the
59 fastest ways to access the contents of a Group.
60 as_hashlist() This method returns the contents of the group as a
63 hash reference. It uses the string value of each
64 item's catalog id as the hash entry key and an array
65 of the scalar values returned by value() as the hash
66 entry value for all the items that share a common key.
67 This form should be used if there might be duplicate
68 catalog tags in the group.
69 This method and its companion as_hash() are the
71 fastest ways to access the contents of a Group.
