EOBDescription
Subclasses Module::Build. Ask questions during the build phase and stores the answers for use during the install phase. The answers to the questions determine where the application will be installed and which additional actions will take place. Should be generic enough for any application
Subroutines/Methods
ACTION_build
When called by it's subclass this method prompts the user for information about how this installation is to be performed. User responses are saved to the build.xml file
ACTION_install
When called from it's subclass this method performs the sequence of actions required to install the application. Configuration options are read from the file build.xml
ACTION_installdeps
Iterates over the requires attributes calling CPAN each time to install the dependent module
fcopy
Copies files from source to destination, creating the destination directories as required
filter
Select only required files for processing. Uses the skip_pattern defined in the subclass which must be called Bob
get_config
Reads the configuration information from the named XML file
get_connect_info
Reads database connection information from the named XML file
process_files
