NAME

TUI::Validate::Const - constants for validator components

SYNOPSIS

use TUI::Validate::Const qw(:all);

# or import specific constant groups
use TUI::Validate::Const qw(:vsXXXX :voXXXX :vtXXXX);

DESCRIPTION

TUI::Validate::Const defines constants used by validation components within the TUI::Vision framework.

The constants in this module describe validator status codes, option flags, and data transfer operations. They are grouped by purpose and exported via tag-based export groups.

This module only defines constants. The semantic meaning and practical usage of these values is implemented and documented in the corresponding validator classes.

CONSTANTS

Validator status constants (vsXXXX)

Status codes returned by validators to indicate validation results.

These values are typically used to signal success or specific validation errors, such as syntax errors detected by picture-based validators.

Validator option flags (voXXXX)

Option flags controlling validator behavior.

These flags are used to configure validation and data transfer semantics, for example whether data should be filled or transferred.

Validator transfer constants (vtXXXX)

Constants defining data transfer operations between validators and associated data structures.

These values are used internally by validators to identify transfer modes such as setting or retrieving data.

EXPORT TAGS

Constants are exported using the following tag-based export groups:

  • :vsXXXX - validator status constants

  • :voXXXX - validator option flags

  • :vtXXXX - validator transfer constants

  • :all - import all constants
