NAME

Reflex::Eg::Inheritance::Plain - Inheriting a Reflex timer with plain Perl.

VERSION

This document describes version 0.100, released on April 02, 2017.

SYNOPSIS

Usage:

perl -M[% doc.module %] -e '[% doc.module %]->new(delay => 1)->run_all'

DESCRIPTION

This module is nearly identical to Reflex::Eg::Inheritance::Moose. It only differs in the mechanism of subclassing Reflex::Timeout.

Reflex::Timeout objects normally go dormant after the first time they call on_done().

[% doc.module %] implements a simple periodic timer by subclassing and overriding Reflex::Timeout's on_done() callback. The act of finishing the timeout causes itself to be reset.

Since this is an example, the subclass also prints a message so it's apparent it works.

This is a relatively silly exercise. Reflex::Interval already implements a periodic interval timer.
