NAME
XBR::Unit - Perl Objected-Oriented Module for ecapsulating XBRL Units
SYNOPSIS
use XBRL::Unit;
my $unit = XBRL::Unit->new($unit_xml);
my $unit_id = $unit->id():
my $unit_measure = $unit->measure();
my $unit_numerator = $unit->numerator();
my $unit_denominator = $unit->denominator();
DESCRIPTION
This module is intended to work in conjunction with the XBRL module for parsing Extensible Business Reporting Language docuements.
new() -- Constructor for the object requires a scalar containing the XML text of the unit.
id() -- Returns a scalar variable with the unit's ID as assigned in the instance document.
measure() -- Returns a scalar variable with a string describing the measure for the unit (e.g. iso4217:USD).
numerator() -- Returns a scalar variable with a string describing the the numerator measure (e.g. iso4217:USD) in the event the unit is representing a division of two types of units (e.g Dollars per Share).
denominator() -- Returns a scalar variable with a string describing the the denominator measure (e.g. xbrli:shares) in the event the unit is representing a division of two types of units (e.g Dollars per Share).
