HTML::Mason::Component::Subcomponent(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation HTML::Mason::Component::Subcomponent(3pm)

NAME

HTML::Mason::Component::Subcomponent - Mason Subcomponent Class

DESCRIPTION

This is a subclass of HTML::Mason::Component. Mason uses it to implement both subcomponents (defined by "<%def>") and methods (defined by "<%method>").

A subcomponent/method gets most of its properties from its owner. Note that the link from the subcomponent to its owner is a weak reference (to prevent circular references), so if you grab a subcomponent/method object, you should also grab and hold a reference to its owner. If the owner goes out of scope, the subcomponent/method object will become unusable.

METHODS

Returns 1 if this is a method (declared by "<%method>"), 0 if it is a subcomponent (defined by c<< <%def> >>).
Returns the component object within which this subcomponent or method was defined.
