FUNCTIONS

dump_pod_structure

  Path to a .POD file, or a POD name (e.g. Foo::Bar) which will be searched in @INC.

  "-" means standard input.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (any)
