# Pod::Simple::LinkSection - phpMan

## NAME
    [Pod::Simple::LinkSection] -- represent "section" attributes of L codes

## SYNOPSIS
     # a long story

## DESCRIPTION
    This class is not of interest to general users.

    [Pod::Simple] uses this class for representing the value of the "section"
    attribute of "L" start-element events. Most applications can just use
    the normal stringification of objects of this class; they stringify to
    just the text content of the section, such as "foo" for "L<Stuff/foo>",
    and "bar" for "L<Stuff/bI<ar>>".

    However, anyone particularly interested in getting the full value of the
    treelet, can just traverse the content of the treeleet @$treelet_object.
    To wit:

      % perl -[MData::Dumper] -e
        "use base qw([Pod::Simple::Methody]);
         sub start_L { print Dumper($_[1]{'section'} ) }
         __PACKAGE__->new->parse_string_document('=head1 L<Foo/bI<ar>baz>>')
        "
    Output:
      $VAR1 = bless( [
                       '',
                       {},
                       'b',
                       bless( [
                                'I',
                                {},
                                'ar'
                              ], '[Pod::Simple::LinkSection]' ),
                       'baz'
                     ], '[Pod::Simple::LinkSection]' );

    But stringify it and you get just the text content:

      % perl -[MData::Dumper] -e
        "use base qw([Pod::Simple::Methody]);
         sub start_L { print Dumper( '' . $_[1]{'section'} ) }
         __PACKAGE__->new->parse_string_document('=head1 L<Foo/bI<ar>baz>>')
        "
    Output:
      $VAR1 = 'barbaz';
