Text::PDF::Objind;
=head1 NAME
Text::PDF::Objind - PDF indirect object reference. Also acts as an abstract
superclass for all elements in a PDF file.
=head1 INSTANCE VARIABLES
Instance variables differ from content variables in that they all start with
a space.
=over
=item parent
For an object which is a reference to an object in some source, this holds the
reference to the source object, so that should the reference have to be
de-referenced, then we know where to go and get the info.
=item objnum (R)
The object number in the source (only for object references)
=item objgen (R)
The object generation in the source
There are other instance variables which are used by the parent for file control.
=item isfree
This marks whether the object is in the free list and available for re-use as
another object elsewhere in the file.
=item nextfree
Holds a direct reference to the next free object in the free list.

=head2 Text::PDF::Objind->new()
Creates a new indirect object
=cut
sub
new
{
my
(
$class
) =
@_
;
my
(
$self
) = {};
bless
$self
,
$class
;
}
=head2 uid
Returns a Unique id for this object, creating one if it didn't have one before
=cut
sub
uid
{
$_
[0]->{
' uid'
} || (
$_
[0]->{
' uid'
} =
$uidc
++); }
=head2 $r->val
Returns the val of this object or reads the object and then returns its value.
Note that all direct subclasses *must* make their own versions of this subroutine
otherwise we could be in for a very deep loop!
=cut
sub
val
{
my
(
$self
) =
@_
;
$self
->{
' parent'
}->read_obj(
$self
)->val
unless
(
$self
->{
' realised'
});
}
=head2 $r->realise
Makes sure that the object is fully read in, etc.
=cut
sub
realise
{
$_
[0]->{
' realised'
} ?
$_
[0] :
$_
[0]->{
' parent'
}->read_obj(
$_
[0]); }
=head2 $r->outobjdeep($fh, $pdf)
If you really want to output this object, then you must need to read it first.
This also means that all direct subclasses must subclass this method or loop forever!
=cut
sub
outobjdeep
{
my
(
$self
,
$fh
,
) =
@_
;
$self
->{
' parent'
}->read_obj(
$self
)->outobjdeep(
$fh
,
)
unless
(
$self
->{
' realised'
});
}
=head2 $r->outobj($fh)
If this is a full object then outputs a reference to the object, otherwise calls
outobjdeep to output the contents of the object at this point.
=cut
sub
outobj
{
my
(
$self
,
$fh
,
) =
@_
;
if
(
defined
->{
' objects'
}{
$self
->uid})
{
$fh
->
printf
(
"%d %d R"
, @{
->{
' objects'
}{
$self
->uid}}[0..1]); }
else
{
$self
->outobjdeep(
$fh
,
); }
}
=head2 $r->elementsof
Abstract superclass function filler. Returns self here but should return
something more useful if an array.
=cut
sub
elementsof
{
my
(
$self
) =
@_
;
if
(
$self
->{
' realised'
})
{
return
(
$self
); }
else
{
return
$self
->{
' parent'
}->read_obj(
$self
)->elementsof; }
}
=head2 $r->empty
Empties all content from this object to free up memory or to be read to pass
the object into the free list. Simplistically undefs all instance variables
other than object number and generation.
=cut
sub
empty
{
my
(
$self
) =
@_
;
my
(
$k
);
for
$k
(
keys
%$self
)
{
undef
$self
->{
$k
}
unless
$inst
{
$k
}; }
$self
;
}
=head2 $r->merge($objind)
This merges content information into an object reference place-holder.
This occurs when an object reference is read before the object definition
and the information in the read data needs to be merged into the object
place-holder
=cut
sub
merge
{
my
(
$self
,
$other
) =
@_
;
my
(
$k
);
for
$k

)
{
$self
->{
$k
} =
$other
->{
$k
}
unless
$inst
{
$k
}; }
$self
->{
' realised'
} = 1;
bless
$self
,
ref
(
$other
);
}
=head2 $r->is_obj($pdf)
Returns whether this object is a full object with its own object number or
whether it is purely a sub-object. $pdf indicates which output file we are
concerned that the object is an object in.
=cut
sub
is_obj
{
defined
$_
[1]->{
' objects'
}{
$_
[0]->uid}; }
=head2 $r->copy($pdf, $res)
Returns a new copy of this object. The object is assumed to be some kind
of associative array and the copy is a deep copy for elements which are
not PDF objects, according to $pdf, and shallow copy for those that are.
Notice that calling C<copy> on an object forces at least a one level
copy even if it is a PDF object. The returned object loses its PDF
object status though.
If $res is defined then the copy goes into that object rather than creating a
new one. It is up to the caller to bless $res, etc. Notice that elements from
$self are not copied into $res if there is already an entry for them existing
in $res.

copy

my
