It uses a simple object oriented interface to retrieve the information stored in the database. Methods: GenInfoParser::new() Creates a new instance of the parser. Can't fail. GenInfoParser::load_list($database) Loads and parses $database. Returns 1 on success and 0 on failure GenInfoParser::get_keys($path) Returns a sorted list of keys from the path $path. Returns an emtpy list if $path has no sublist. If there is no $path spcified, the method will return the primary key list. $path can be specified case insensitive. Sorting is done case insensitive. GenInfoParser::get_key($path) Returns the key to $path or 'undef' if an invalid path is given. Example: $path = 'src633/comment/build' will return 'Build' as key. Note: $path can be specified case insensitive, but the returned key will have the exact case as in the database. GenInfoParser::get_value($path) Returns the value to $path or 'undef' is invalid path is given. =head2 EXPORT GenInfoParser::new() GenInfoParser::load_list($database) GenInfoParser::get_keys($path) GenInfoParser::get_key($path) GenInfoParser::get_value($path) =head1 AUTHOR Jens-Heiner Rechtien, rechtien@sun.com =head1 SEE ALSO perl(1). =cut
