NAME

       CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate::ComponentHandler - Embed run modes within a template

DESCRIPTION

       This is a little helper module used by CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate to handle finding and
       running the run modes for embedded components, and returning their content.

       You shouldn't need to use this module directly unless you are adding support for a new template system.

       For information on embedded components see the docs of CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate.

METHODS

       new Creates a new "CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate::ComponentHandler" object.

               my $component_handler = CGI::Application::Plugin::AnyTemplate::ComponentHandler->new(
                   webapp              => $webapp,
                   containing_template => $template,
               );

           The "webapp" parameter should be a reference to a "CGI::Application" object.

           The "containing_template" parameter should be a reference to the template object in which this
           component is embedded.

       embed
           Runs the specified "runmode" of the "webapp" object.  Returns the results of this call.

           Parameters passed to embed should be passed on to the run mode.

           If the results are a scalar reference, then the return value is dereferenced before returning.  This
           is the safest way of calling a run mode since you'll get the output as a string and return it as a
           string, but it involves returning potentially very large strings from subroutines.

       embed_direct
           Runs the specified "runmode" of the "webapp" object.  Returns the results of this call.

           Parameters passed to embed_direct should be passed on to the run mode.

           Even if the result of this call is a scalar reference, the result is NOT dereferenced before
           returning it.

           If you call this method instead of embed, you should be careful to deal with the possibility that
           your results are a reference to a string and not the string itself.
