DESCRIPTION

This is a collection of results. The results are grouped and collected together in a way that makes sense to the Form::Factory API.

METHODS

results

my @results = $self->results;

Returns a list of the results that have been gathered.

gather_results

$result->gather_results(@results);

Given one or more result objects, it adds them to the list of results already gathered. These are placed in a set such that no result is added more than once. If a result object was already added, it will not be added again.

clear_state

Clears the state of all gathered results. It just calls clear_state recursively on all results.

clear_results

Clears the list of results. "results" will return an empty list after this is called.

clear_messages

Calls the clear_messages method on all results that have been gathered. This will clear messages for all the associated results.

clear_messages_for_field

$result->clear_messagesw_for_field($field);

Calls the clear_messages_for_field method on all results that have been gathered.

clear_all

Clears all messages on the gathered results (via "clear_message") and then clears all the results (via "clear_results").

is_valid

Tests each result for validity. This will return true if every result returns false for is_validated or returns true for is_valid.

is_validated

Returns true if any result returns true for is_validated.

is_success

Tests each result for success. This will return true if every result returns false for is_outcome_known or true for is_success.

is_outcome_known

Returns true if any result returns true for is_outcome_known.

messages

Returns a reference to an array of messages. This includes all messages from the gathered results.

content

Performs a shallow merge of all the return value of each result's content method and returns that.
