Tree::Simple::Visitor::VariableDepthClone - A Visitor for cloning parts of Tree::Simple hierarchy
use Tree::Simple::Visitor::VariableDepthClone; # create an visitor my $visitor = Tree::Simple::Visitor::VariableDepthClone->new(); $visitor->setCloneDepth(3); # pass our visitor to the tree $tree->accept($visitor); my $partial_tree = $visitor->getClone();
This visitor will clone
There are no arguments to the constructor the object will be in its default state. You can use the setNodeFilter method to customize its behavior.
setNodeFilter
Based upon the value of $boolean, this will tell the visitor to include the trunk of the tree in the traversal as well. This basically means it will clone the root node as well.
$boolean
This method accepts a CODE reference as its $filter_function argument and throws an exception if it is not a code reference. This code reference is used to filter the tree nodes as they are cloned.
$filter_function
This is the method that is used by Tree::Simple's accept method. It can also be used on its own, it requires the $tree argument to be a Tree::Simple object (or derived from a Tree::Simple object), and will throw and exception otherwise.
accept
$tree
This method returns the cloned partial tree.
None that I am aware of. Of course, if you find a bug, let me know, and I will be sure to fix it.
See the CODE COVERAGE section in Tree::Simple::VisitorFactory for more inforamtion.
These Visitor classes are all subclasses of Tree::Simple::Visitor, which can be found in the Tree::Simple module, you should refer to that module for more information.
