NAME

       Event::ExecFlow::Frontend - Abstract base class for custom frontends

SYNOPSIS

         #-- Derived from Event::ExecFlow::Frontend
         my $frontend = MyApp::GUI::Frontent->new();
         my $job      = Event::ExecFlow::Job::Command->new ( ... );
         $frontend->start_job($job);

         #-- Later the following methods are called and need to
         #-- by implemented by you
         $frontend->report_job_start($job);
         $frontend->report_job_progress($job);
         $frontend->report_job_error($job);
         $frontend->report_job_warning($job);
         $frontend->report_job_finished($job);
         $frontend->log($message);

DESCRIPTION

       This is an abstract base class and usually not used directly from the application. For
       daily programming the attributes defined in this class are most important, since they are
       common to all Jobs of the Event::ExecFlow framework.
