Class P4::OutputHandler
Description
The P4::OutputHandler class provides access to
streaming output from the server. After defining the output handler, call
P4::SetHandler() with your implementation of
P4::OutputHandler.
Because
P4Perl
does not provide a template or superclass, your output handler must
implement all five of the following methods:
OutputMessage(), OutputText(),
OutputInfo(), OutputBinary(), and
OutputStat(), even if the implementation consists of
trivially returning 0 (report only: don’t handle output,
don’t cancel operation).
These methods must return one of the following four values:
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
|
|
Messages added to output (don’t handle, don’t cancel). |
|
|
Output is handled by class (don’t add message to output). |
|
|
Operation is marked for cancel, message is added to output. |
|
|
Operation is marked for cancel, message not added to output. |
