NAME

dtRdr::Annotation - base class for Note, Bookmark, and Highlight objects

SYNOPSIS

Not much happening here. See dtRdr::Annotation::Range.

TYPES

The inheritance and traits isn't very easily drawn. This is about the best a 2D picture can get.

                 Range  <-- Location (start, end)
                   |
  Annotation    Selection
    \             /
     \           /
      \         /
       \       /
    Annotation::Range
      |-- Highlight
      |-- Note     (+ Annotation::Trait::Boundless)
      |-- Bookmark (+ Annotation::Trait::Boundless)
      `-- AnnoSelection

Currently, all annotations are range-based. Point-based annotations would be derived from dtRdr::Location, but we haven't found a use for those yet.

Identifier Methods

IS_RANGE_TYPE

Required for all annotations. Any annotation derived from this class is a range type, so this is just a constant.

ANNOTATION_TYPE

Must be implemented by subclasses.

make_public

  $anno->make_public(
    owner  => $owner_id,
    server => $server_id,
    rev    => $server_revision
  );

is_mine

Returns true if the annotation is owned by you (whether public or local.)

  my $is = $anno->is_mine;
