NAME

Data::Grid::Container - Generic superclass for Data::Grid containers

VERSION

Version 0.01_01

SYNOPSIS

package Data::Grid::Foo;

use base 'Data::Grid::Container';

# Now code some specific stuff...

DESCRIPTION

The data grid in Data::Grid is modeled as an ordered tree of tables, rows and cells, all contained inside a bundle. This module encapsulates the common behaviour of these components.

METHODS

new $parent, $position [, $proxy ]

This basic constructor takes three arguments: the parent object, a numeric position amongst its siblings, beginning with 0, and an optional proxy object to manipulate directly, if it is necessary or advantageous to do so.

parent

Retrieve the parent object.

position

Retrieve the absolute position of the object, as it was passed in from the constructor.

proxy

Retrieve the proxy object (for internal manipulation).

as_string

This is a stub to hook up a serialization method to the string overload. Fill it in at your leisure, otherwise it is a no-op.
