Overview The Palm::Timesheet class parses a Timesheet PDB and collects the data contained in a set of objects. A timesheet entry consists of a client , project, task, date, duration (hour and minutes) a comment and if the entry is chargeable or not. Constructor and Initialization For the moment one constructor is available, it takes an existing PDB as a parameter and parses the database. my $ts = Palm::Timesheet->new( -file => $filename ); Class and other object methods write # Write to filename $ts->write( $filename ); # Rewrite, using constructor filename. $ts->write get_days Returns a Palm::Timesheet::DayRecordList get_preferences Returns a Palm::Timesheet::PreferenceRecord get_clients Returns a Palm::Timesheet::ClientRecordList get_projects Returns a Palm::Timesheet::ProjectRecordList get_tasks Returns a Palm::Timesheet::TaskRecordList BUGS Probably a few ... but it works for now. PDB writing has *not* been thoroughly tested. AUTHOR Johan Van den Brande COPYRIGHT Copyright (c) 2001, Johan Van den Brande. All Rights Reserved. This module is free software.
