NAME

Biblio::ILL::ISO::Request - Perl extension for handling ISO 10161 interlibrary loan ILL-Request messages

VERSION

Version 0.01

DESCRIPTION

Biblio::ILL::ISO::Request is a derivation of the abstract Biblio::ILL::ISO::ISO object, and handles the ILL-Request message type.

EXPORT

None.

ERROR HANDLING

Each of the set_() methods will croak on missing or invalid parameters.

CONSTRUCTORS

new()

Base constructor for the class. It just returns a completely empty message object, which you'll need to populate with the various set_() methods, or use the read() method to read an ILL-Request message from a file (followed by a call to from_asn() to turn the read's returned hash into a proper Request message.

The constructor also initializes the Convert::ASN1 if it hasn't been initialized.

METHODS

For any example code, assume the following: my $msg = new Biblio::ILL::ISO::Request;

from_asn($href)

To read a message from a file, use the following:

    my $href = $msg->read("msg_01.request.ber");
    $msg = $msg->from_asn($href);

The from_asn() method turns the hash returned from read() into a proper message-type object.

set_protocol_version_num($pvn)

 Sets the protocol version number.
 Acceptable parameter values are the strings:
    version-1
    version-2

set_transaction_id($tid)

 Sets the message's transaction-id.  
 Expects a valid Biblio::ILL::ISO::TransactionId.

    my $tid = new Biblio::ILL::ISO::TransactionId("PLS","001","", 
                                                  new Biblio::ILL::ISO::SystemId("MWPL"));
    $msg->set_transaction_id($tid);

 This is a mandatory field.

set_service_date_time($sdt)

 Sets the message's service-date-time.  
 Expects a valid Biblio::ILL::ISO::ServiceDateTime.

    my $dt_this = new Biblio::ILL::ISO::DateTime("20030623","114400");
