NAME

       Log::Report::Lexicon::POTcompact - use translations from a POT file

INHERITANCE

        Log::Report::Lexicon::POTcompact
          is a Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

SYNOPSIS

        # using a PO table efficiently
        my $pot = Log::Report::Lexicon::POTcompact
                    ->read('po/nl.po', charset => 'utf-8')
           or die;

        my $header = $pot->msgid('');
        print $pot->msgstr('msgid', 3);

DESCRIPTION

       This module is translating, based on PO files. PO files are used to store translations in humanly
       readable format for most of existing translation frameworks, like GNU gettext and Perl's Maketext.

       Internally, this module tries to be as efficient as possible: high speed and low memory foot-print.  You
       will not be able to sub-class this class cleanly.

       If you like to change the content of PO files, then use Log::Report::Lexicon::POT.

       See documentation in the base class.

METHODS

       See documentation in the base class.

   Constructors
       See documentation in the base class.

       Log::Report::Lexicon::POTcompact->new(OPTIONS)
           See "Constructors" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

       Log::Report::Lexicon::POTcompact->read(FILENAME, OPTIONS)
           Read  the  POT  table  information from FILENAME, as compact as possible.  Comments, plural-form, and
           such are lost on purpose: they are not needed for translations.

            -Option --Default
             charset  <required>

           charset => STRING
             The character-set which is used for the file.  You must specify this explicitly, while it cannot be
             trustfully detected automatically.

   Attributes
       See documentation in the base class.

       $obj->filename()
           Returns the name of the source file for this data.

       $obj->index()
           Returns a HASH of all defined PO objects, organized by msgid.  Please try to avoid  using  this:  use
           msgid() for lookup.

   Managing PO's
       See documentation in the base class.

       Translation

       See documentation in the base class.

       $obj->msgid(STRING)
           Lookup  the  translations with the STRING.  Returns a SCALAR, when only one translation is known, and
           an ARRAY wherein there are multiple.  Returns "undef" when the translation is not defined.

       $obj->msgstr(MSGID, [COUNT])
           Returns the translated string for MSGID.  When not specified, COUNT is 1 (the single form).

       Administration

       See documentation in the base class.

       $obj->add(PO)
           See "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

       $obj->header(FIELD)
           See "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

       $obj->nrPlurals()
           See "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

       $obj->pluralIndex(COUNT)
           See "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

       $obj->setupPluralAlgorithm()
           See "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table

       $obj->translations([ACTIVE])
           See "Administration" in Log::Report::Lexicon::Table
