.SH "NAME"
Test::Builder::IO::Scalar \- A copy of IO::Scalar for Test::Builder
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This is a copy of IO::Scalar which ships with Test::Builder to
support scalar references as filehandles on Perl 5.6.  Newer
versions of Perl simply use \f(CW\*(C`open()\*(C'\fR's built in support.
.PP
Test::Builder can not have dependencies on other modules without
careful consideration, so its simply been copied into the distribution.

.SS "Construction"
.IX Subsection "Construction"
.IP "new [\s-1ARGS\s0...]" 4
.IX Item "new [ARGS...]"
\&\fIClass method.\fR
Return a new, unattached scalar handle.
If any arguments are given, they're sent to \fIopen()\fR.
.IP "open [\s-1SCALARREF\s0]" 4
.IX Item "open [SCALARREF]"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Open the scalar handle on a new scalar, pointed to by \s-1SCALARREF\s0.
If no \s-1SCALARREF\s0 is given, a \*(L"private\*(R" scalar is created to hold
the file data.
.Sp
Returns the self object on success, undefined on error.
.IP "opened" 4
.IX Item "opened"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Is the scalar handle opened on something?
.IP "close" 4
.IX Item "close"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Disassociate the scalar handle from its underlying scalar.
Done automatically on destroy.
.SS "Input and output"
.IX Subsection "Input and output"
.IP "flush" 4
.IX Item "flush"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
No-op, provided for \s-1OO\s0 compatibility.
.IP "getc" 4
.IX Item "getc"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Return the next character, or undef if none remain.
.IP "getline" 4
.IX Item "getline"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Return the next line, or undef on end of string.
Can safely be called in an array context.
Currently, lines are delimited by \*(L"\en\*(R".
.IP "getlines" 4
.IX Item "getlines"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Get all remaining lines.
It will \fIcroak()\fR if accidentally called in a scalar context.
.IP "print \s-1ARGS\s0..." 4
.IX Item "print ARGS..."
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Print \s-1ARGS\s0 to the underlying scalar.
.Sp
\&\fBWarning:\fR this continues to always cause a seek to the end
of the string, but if you perform \fIseek()\fRs and \fItell()\fRs, it is
still safer to explicitly seek-to-end before subsequent \fIprint()\fRs.
.IP "read \s-1BUF\s0, \s-1NBYTES\s0, [\s-1OFFSET\s0]" 4
.IX Item "read BUF, NBYTES, [OFFSET]"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Read some bytes from the scalar.
Returns the number of bytes actually read, 0 on end-of-file, undef on error.
.IP "write \s-1BUF\s0, \s-1NBYTES\s0, [\s-1OFFSET\s0]" 4
.IX Item "write BUF, NBYTES, [OFFSET]"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Write some bytes to the scalar.
.IP "sysread \s-1BUF\s0, \s-1LEN\s0, [\s-1OFFSET\s0]" 4
.IX Item "sysread BUF, LEN, [OFFSET]"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Read some bytes from the scalar.
Returns the number of bytes actually read, 0 on end-of-file, undef on error.
.IP "syswrite \s-1BUF\s0, \s-1NBYTES\s0, [\s-1OFFSET\s0]" 4
.IX Item "syswrite BUF, NBYTES, [OFFSET]"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Write some bytes to the scalar.

.IX Item "binmode"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
No-op, provided for \s-1OO\s0 compatibility.
.IP "clearerr" 4
.IX Item "clearerr"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR  Clear the error and \s-1EOF\s0 flags.  A no-op.
.IP "eof" 4
.IX Item "eof"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR  Are we at end of file?
.IP "seek \s-1OFFSET\s0, \s-1WHENCE\s0" 4
.IX Item "seek OFFSET, WHENCE"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR  Seek to a given position in the stream.
.IP "sysseek \s-1OFFSET\s0, \s-1WHENCE\s0" 4
.IX Item "sysseek OFFSET, WHENCE"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR Identical to \f(CW\*(C`seek OFFSET, WHENCE\*(C'\fR, \fIq.v.\fR
.IP "tell" 4
.IX Item "tell"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Return the current position in the stream, as a numeric offset.
.IP "use_RS [\s-1YESNO\s0]" 4
.IX Item "use_RS [YESNO]"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
\&\fBDeprecated and ignored.\fR
Obey the current setting of $/, like IO::Handle does?
Default is false in 1.x, but cold-welded true in 2.x and later.
.IP "setpos \s-1POS\s0" 4
.IX Item "setpos POS"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Set the current position, using the opaque value returned by \f(CW\*(C`getpos()\*(C'\fR.
.IP "getpos" 4
.IX Item "getpos"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Return the current position in the string, as an opaque object.
.IP "sref" 4
.IX Item "sref"
\&\fIInstance method.\fR
Return a reference to the underlying scalar.
.SH "WARNINGS"
.IX Header "WARNINGS"
Perl's \s-1TIEHANDLE\s0 spec was incomplete prior to 5.005_57;
it was missing support for \f(CW\*(C`seek()\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`tell()\*(C'\fR, and \f(CW\*(C`eof()\*(C'\fR.
Attempting to use these functions with an IO::Scalar will not work
prior to 5.005_57. IO::Scalar will not have the relevant methods
invoked; and even worse, this kind of bug can lie dormant for a while.
If you turn warnings on (via \f(CW$^W\fR or \f(CW\*(C`perl \-w\*(C'\fR),
and you see something like this...
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    attempt to seek on unopened filehandle
.Ve
.PP
\&...then you are probably trying to use one of these functions
on an IO::Scalar with an old Perl.  The remedy is to simply
use the \s-1OO\s0 version; e.g.:
.PP
.Vb 2
\&    $SH\->seek(0,0);    ### GOOD: will work on any 5.005
\&    seek($SH,0,0);     ### WARNING: will only work on 5.005_57 and beyond

The full set of contributors always includes the folks mentioned
in \*(L"\s-1CHANGE\s0 \s-1LOG\s0\*(R" in IO::Stringy.  But just the same, special
thanks to the following individuals for their invaluable contributions
(if I've forgotten or misspelled your name, please email me!):
.PP
\&\fIAndy Glew,\fR
for contributing \f(CW\*(C`getc()\*(C'\fR.
.PP
\&\fIBrandon Browning,\fR
for suggesting \f(CW\*(C`opened()\*(C'\fR.
.PP
\&\fIDavid Richter,\fR
for finding and fixing the bug in \f(CW\*(C`PRINTF()\*(C'\fR.
.PP
\&\fIEric L. Brine,\fR
for his offset-using \fIread()\fR and \fIwrite()\fR implementations.
.PP
\&\fIRichard Jones,\fR
for his patches to massively improve the performance of \f(CW\*(C`getline()\*(C'\fR
and add \f(CW\*(C`sysread\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`syswrite\*(C'\fR.
.PP
\&\fIB. K. Oxley (binkley),\fR
for stringification and inheritance improvements,
and sundry good ideas.
.PP
\&\fIDoug Wilson,\fR
for the IO::Handle inheritance and automatic tie-ing.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.IX Header "SEE ALSO"
IO::String, which is quite similar but which was designed
more-recently and with an IO::Handle\-like interface in mind,
so you could mix \s-1OO\-\s0 and native-filehandle usage without using \fItied()\fR.
.PP
\&\fINote:\fR as of version 2.x, these classes all work like
their IO::Handle counterparts, so we have comparable
functionality to IO::String.
