NAME
Fry::ShellI - Extended Fry::Shell interface to be used by libraries and plugins as needed.
DESCRIPTION
The public methods of this class are mainly used in library classes. Since this module inherits from Fry::Base, some of its methods are also encouraged to be used in libraries. These methods are dumper,view,Var,setVar and listCore as well as the Plugin-related methods. See their documentation in Fry::Base.
A word about using methods from a core class, don't rely too heavily on them since core classes and their methods may change. Also, don't use core class accessors directly in a library.
$cls->lib->initLibs($lib)
Instead, you should use &call
$cls->call(lib=>'initLibs',$lib);
PUBLIC METHODS
call($core_class,$method): Calls a core class's method to call the library class's &unloadLib:
call(lib=>'unloadLib',@args);
List($core_class): Returns list of object ids for given core class. Wrapper around a core class's &listIds.
listAll($core_class): Returns list of object ids and their aliases for core class. Wrapper around a core class's &listAliasAndIds.
saveArray(@value): Sets the lines variable to the given array. Used with the menu option.
varMany(@var): Gets several variable values.
requireLibraries(@libs): Loads libraries if they're not loaded.
Note: Valid core classes are the core class accessors in Fry::Base.
