NAME

WARC::Index::Entries - combine information from multiple WARC::Index entries

SYNOPSIS

  use WARC::Collection;

  # WARC::Index::Entries objects are used to merge data from multiple indexes
  #  and are used internally when searching a collection with multiple indexes

DESCRIPTION

See "Common Methods" in WARC::Index::Entry for accessor methods.

Constructor

$combined_entry = coalesce WARC::Index::Entries ( [ ... ] )

Return a coalesced index entry by combining multiple WARC::Index::Entry objects, presumably from different indexes. All of the index entries so combined must have the same tag value, or the resultant behavior is undefined. This constructor does not verify this requirement.

Since this is intended for internal use, the array reference passed to the constructor is reused as part of the returned object.
