TAP::Parser::Multiplexer - phpMan

NAME
    TAP::Parser::Multiplexer - Multiplex multiple TAP::Parsers

VERSION
    Version 3.43

SYNOPSIS
        use TAP::Parser::Multiplexer;

        my $mux = TAP::Parser::Multiplexer->new;
        $mux->add( $parser1, $stash1 );
        $mux->add( $parser2, $stash2 );
        while ( my ( $parser, $stash, $result ) = $mux->next ) {
            # do stuff
        }

DESCRIPTION
    "TAP::Parser::Multiplexer" gathers input from multiple TAP::Parsers.
    Internally it calls select on the input file handles for those parsers
    to wait for one or more of them to have input available.

    See TAP::Harness for an example of its use.

METHODS
  Class Methods
   "new"
        my $mux = TAP::Parser::Multiplexer->new;

    Returns a new "TAP::Parser::Multiplexer" object.

  Instance Methods
   "add"
      $mux->add( $parser, $stash );

    Add a TAP::Parser to the multiplexer. $stash is an optional opaque
    reference that will be returned from "next" along with the parser and
    the next result.

   "parsers"
      my $count   = $mux->parsers;

    Returns the number of parsers. Parsers are removed from the multiplexer
    when their input is exhausted.

   "next"
    Return a result from the next available parser. Returns a list
    containing the parser from which the result came, the stash that
    corresponds with that parser and the result.

        my ( $parser, $stash, $result ) = $mux->next;

    If $result is undefined the corresponding parser has reached the end of
    its input (and will automatically be removed from the multiplexer).

    When all parsers are exhausted an empty list will be returned.

        if ( my ( $parser, $stash, $result ) = $mux->next ) {
            if ( ! defined $result ) {
                # End of this parser
            }
            else {
                # Process result
            }
        }
        else {
            # All parsers finished
        }
