NAME

       Parse::DMIDecode::Handle - SMBIOS Structure Handle Object Class

SYNOPSIS

	use Parse::DMIDecode qw();
	my $decoder = new Parse::DMIDecode;
	$decoder->probe;

	for my $handle ($decoder->get_handles) {
	    printf("Handle %s of type %s is %s bytes long (minus strings).
".
		   "  > Contians the following keyword data entries:
",
		    $handle->handle,
		    $handle->dmitype,
		    $handle->bytes
		);

	    for my $keyword ($handle->keywords) {
		my $value = $handle->keyword($keyword);
		printf("Keyword "%s" => "%s"
",
			$keyword,
			(ref($value) eq 'ARRAY' ?
			    join(', ',@{$value}) : ($value||''))
		    );
	    }
	}

DESCRIPTION

METHODS

   new
       Create a new struture handle object. This is called by Parse::DMIDecode's parse() (and indirectly by probe()) methods.

   raw
	my $raw_data = $handle->raw;

       Returns the raw data as generated by dmidecode that was parsed to create this handle object.

   bytes
	my $bytes = $handle->bytes;

   address
	my $address = $handle->address;

       Returns the address handle of the structure.

   handle
       Alias for address.

   dmitype
	my $dmitype = $handle->dmitype;

   type
       Alias for dmitype.

   description
	my $description = $handle->description;

   keywords
	my @keywords = $handle->keywords;

       Returns a list of keyword data pairs available for retreival from this handle object.

   keyword
	for my $keyword ($handle->keywords) {
	    printf("Keyword "%s" => "%s"
",
		    $keyword,
		    $handle->keyword($keyword)
		);
	}

   parsed_structures
	use Data::Dumper;
	my $ref = $handle->parsed_structures;
	print Dumper($ref);

       Returns a copy of the parsed structures. This should be used with care as this is a cloned copy of the parsed data structures that the
       Parse::DMIDecode::Handle object uses internally, and as such may change format in later releases without notice.

NAME

       Crypt::Random::Source::Base::Handle - IO::Handle based random data sources

SYNOPSIS

	   use Moose;
	   extends qw(Crypt::Random::Source::Base::Handle);

	   sub open_handle {
	       # invoked as needed
	   }

	   # this class can also be used directly
	   Crypt::Random::Source::Base::Handle->new( handle => $file_handle );

	   # it supports some standard methods:

	   $p->blocking(0);

	   $p->read( my $buf, $n ); # no error handling here

DESCRIPTION

       This is a concrete base class for all IO::Handle based random data sources.

       It implements error handling

ATTRIBUTES

   handle
       An IO::Handle or file handle to read from.

   blocking
       This is actually handled by "handle", and is documented in IO::Handle.

   allow_under_read
       Whether or not under reading is considered an error.

       Defaults to false.

   reread_attempts
       The number of attempts to make at rereading if the handle did not provide enough bytes on the first attempt.

       Defaults to 1.

       Only used if "allow_under_read" is enabled.

METHODS

   get
       See "get" in Crypt::Random::Source::Base.

       When "blocking" or "allow_under_read" are set to a true value this method may return fewer bytes than requested.

   read
       This delegates directly to "handle".

       It DOES NOT provide the same validation as "get" would have, so no checking for underreads is done.

   close
       Close the handle and clear it.

   _read
       "$self->handle->read" but with additional error checking and different calling conventions.

   _read_too_short
       Called by "_read" when not enough data was read from the handle. Normally it will either die with an error or attempt to reread. When
       "allow_under_read" is true it will just return the partial buffer.

   open_handle
       Abstract method, should return an IO::Handle to use.
