NAME

Data::Fetch - give advance warning that you'll be needing a value

VERSION

Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

Sometimes we know in advance that we'll be needing a value which is going to take a long time to compute or determine. This module fetches the value in the background so that you don't need to wait so long when you need the value.

use CalculatePi;
use Data::Fetch;
my $fetcher = Data::Fetch->new();
my $object = CalculatePi->new(places => 1000000);
$fetcher->prime(object => $object, message => get);
# Do other things
print $fetcher->get(object => $object, message => get), "\n";

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

new

Creates a Data::Fetch object. Takes no argument.

prime

Say what is is you'll be needing later. Takes two mandatory parameters:

object - the object you'll be sending the message to
message - the message you'll be sending

get

Retrieve get a value you've primed. Takes two mandatory parameters:

object - the object you'll be sending the message to
message - the message you'll be sending

BUGS

Can't give arguments to the message.

Changing a value between prime and get will not necessarily get you the data you want. That's the way it works and isn't going to change.

If you change a value between two calls of get(), the earlier value is always used. This is definitely a feature not a bug.

Please report any bugs or feature requests to bug-data-fetch at rt.cpan.org, or through the web interface at http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/ReportBug.html?Queue=Data-Fetch. I will be notified, and then you'll automatically be notified of progress on your bug as I make changes.
