NAME

Win32::PEFile::SectionHandlers - PEFile section handlers

OVERVIEW

A PEFile contains a number of sections that provide the "interesting" information and data in the file. This module provides code to handle various section types. Win32::PEFile::SectionHandlers is a base class that provides common construction code and hooks the derived section handler classes into the PEFile parser. This allows entry points provided by section handlers to be made available from PEFile objects as object methods.

Section handlers call Win32::PEFile::SectionHandlers::register() passing their class, section tag ('.rsrc' for example) and the list of public methods provided by the section handler.

Win32::PEFile uses AUTOLOAD to hook up section handlers to the Win32::PEFile class on demand.
