NAME

       Net::AMQP::Protocol::Base - Base class of auto-generated protocol classes

DESCRIPTION

       See "load_xml_spec" in Net::AMQP::Protocol for how subclasses to this class are auto-
       generated.

CLASS METHODS

   class_id
       The class id from the specficiation.

   method_id
       The method id from the specification.  In the case of a content <class> (such as Basic,
       File or Stream), method_id is 0 for the virtual ContentHeader method.  This allows you to
       create a Header frame in much the same way you create a Method frame, but with the virtual
       method 'ContentHeader'.  For example:

         my $header_frame = Net::AMQP::Protocol::Basic::ContentHeader->new(
           content_type => 'text/html'
         );

         print $header_frame->method_id(); # prints '0'

   frame_arguments
       Contains an ordered arrayref of the fields that comprise a frame for this method.  For
       example:

         Net::AMQP::Protocol::Channel::Open->frame_arguments([
             out_of_band => 'short_string'
         ]);

       This is used by the Net::AMQP::Frame subclasses to (de)serialize raw binary data.  Each of
       these fields are also an accessor for the class objects.

   class_spec
       Contains the hashref that the "load_xml_spec()" call generated for this class.

   method_spec
       Same as above, but for this method.

OBJECT METHODS

   frame_wrap
       Returns a Net::AMQP::Frame subclass object that wraps the given object, if possible.
