=head1 NAME

ModuleInfo - Gather package and POD information from a perl module files


=head1 DESCRIPTION

=over 4

=item new_from_file($filename, collect_pod => 1)

Construct a ModuleInfo object given the path to a file. Takes an optional
arguement C<collect_pod> which is a boolean that determines whether
POD data is collected and stored for reference. POD data is not
collected by default. POD headings are always collected.

=item new_from_module($module, collect_pod => 1, inc => \@dirs)

Construct a ModuleInfo object given a module or package name. In addition
to accepting the C<collect_pod> argument as described above, this
method accepts a C<inc> arguemnt which is a reference to an array of
of directories to search for the module. If none are given, the
default is @INC.

=item name()

Returns the name of the package represented by this module. If there
are more than one packages, it makes a best guess based on the
filename. If it's a script (i.e. not a *.pm) the package name is
'main'.

=item version($package)

Returns the version as defined by the $VERSION variable for the
package as returned by the C<name> method if no arguments are
given. If given the name of a package it will attempt to return the
version of that package if it is specified in the file.

=item filename()

Returns the absolute path to the file.

=item packages_inside()

Returns a list of packages.

=item pod_inside()

Returns a list of POD sections.

=item contains_pod()

Returns true if there is any POD in the file.

=item pod($section)

Returns the POD data in the given section.

=item find_module_by_name($module, \@dirs)

Returns the path to a module given the module or package name. A list
of directories can be passed in as an optional paramater, otherwise
@INC is searched.

Can be called as either an object or a class method.

=item find_module_dir_by_name($module, \@dirs)

Returns the entry in C<@dirs> (or C<@INC> by default) that contains
the module C<$module>. A list of directories can be passed in as an
optional paramater, otherwise @INC is searched.

Can be called as either an object or a class method.

	349
	350	ModuleInfo - Gather package and POD information from a perl module files
	351
	352
	353	=head1 DESCRIPTION
	354
	355	=over 4
	356
	357	=item new_from_file($filename, collect_pod => 1)
	358
	359	Construct a ModuleInfo object given the path to a file. Takes an optional
	360	arguement C<collect_pod> which is a boolean that determines whether
	361	POD data is collected and stored for reference. POD data is not
	362	collected by default. POD headings are always collected.
	363
	364	=item new_from_module($module, collect_pod => 1, inc => \@dirs)
	365
	366	Construct a ModuleInfo object given a module or package name. In addition
	367	to accepting the C<collect_pod> argument as described above, this
	368	method accepts a C<inc> arguemnt which is a reference to an array of
	369	of directories to search for the module. If none are given, the
370	default is @INC.
371
372	=item name()
373
374	Returns the name of the package represented by this module. If there
375	are more than one packages, it makes a best guess based on the
376	filename. If it's a script (i.e. not a *.pm) the package name is
377	'main'.
378
379	=item version($package)
380
381	Returns the version as defined by the $VERSION variable for the
382	package as returned by the C<name> method if no arguments are
383	given. If given the name of a package it will attempt to return the
384	version of that package if it is specified in the file.
385
386	=item filename()
387
388	Returns the absolute path to the file.
389
390	=item packages_inside()
391
392	Returns a list of packages.
393
394	=item pod_inside()
395
396	Returns a list of POD sections.
397
398	=item contains_pod()
399
400	Returns true if there is any POD in the file.
401
402	=item pod($section)
403
404	Returns the POD data in the given section.
405
406	=item find_module_by_name($module, \@dirs)
407
408	Returns the path to a module given the module or package name. A list
409	of directories can be passed in as an optional paramater, otherwise
410	@INC is searched.
411
412	Can be called as either an object or a class method.
413
414	=item find_module_dir_by_name($module, \@dirs)
415
416	Returns the entry in C<@dirs> (or C<@INC> by default) that contains
417	the module C<$module>. A list of directories can be passed in as an
418	optional paramater, otherwise @INC is searched.
419
420	Can be called as either an object or a class method.
