NAME

perfSONAR_PS::Messages - A module that provides common methods for performing actions on message constructs.

DESCRIPTION

This module is a catch all for message related methods in the perfSONAR-PS framework. As such there is no 'common thread' that each method shares. This module IS NOT an object, and the methods can be invoked directly (and sparingly).
