NAME
Slaughter::Info::generic - Perl Automation Tool Helper generic info implementation
SYNOPSIS
This module is the generic version of the Slaughter information-gathering module.
Modules beneath the Slaughter::Info
namespace are loaded when slaughter is executed, they are used to populate a hash with information about the current host.
This module is loaded when no specific module matches the local system, and is essentially a no-operation module.
Usage is:
use Slaughter::Info::generic;
my $obj = Slaughter::Info::generic->new();
my $data = $obj->getInformation();
NOTE: The data retrieved by this generic module is almost empty.
