.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This is a simple iterator wrapper for executing external processes, used by
TAP::Parser.  Unless you're writing a plugin or subclassing, you probably
won't need to use this module directly.
.SH METHODS
.IX Header "METHODS"
.SS "Class Methods"
.IX Subsection "Class Methods"
\fR\f(CI\*(C`new\*(C'\fR\fI\fR
.IX Subsection "new"
.PP
Create an iterator.  Expects one argument containing a hashref of the form:
.PP
.Vb 4
\&   command  => \e@command_to_execute
\&   merge    => $attempt_merge_stderr_and_stdout?
\&   setup    => $callback_to_setup_command
\&   teardown => $callback_to_teardown_command
.Ve
.PP
Tries to uses IPC::Open3 & IO::Select to communicate with the spawned
process if they are available.  Falls back onto \f(CWopen()\fR.
.SS "Instance Methods"
.IX Subsection "Instance Methods"
\fR\f(CI\*(C`next\*(C'\fR\fI\fR
.IX Subsection "next"
.PP
Iterate through the process output, of course.
.PP
\fR\f(CI\*(C`next_raw\*(C'\fR\fI\fR
.IX Subsection "next_raw"
.PP
Iterate raw input without applying any fixes for quirky input syntax.
.PP
\fR\f(CI\*(C`wait\*(C'\fR\fI\fR
.IX Subsection "wait"
.PP
Get the wait status for this iterator's process.
.PP
\fR\f(CI\*(C`exit\*(C'\fR\fI\fR
.IX Subsection "exit"
.PP
Get the exit status for this iterator's process.
.PP
\fR\f(CI\*(C`handle_unicode\*(C'\fR\fI\fR
.IX Subsection "handle_unicode"
.PP
Upgrade the input stream to handle UTF8.
.PP
\fR\f(CI\*(C`get_select_handles\*(C'\fR\fI\fR
.IX Subsection "get_select_handles"
.PP
Return a list of filehandles that may be used upstream in a \fBselect()\fR
call to signal that this Iterator is ready. Iterators that are not
handle based should return an empty list.
