ONVIF:...ference(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so this is the ONVIF:...ference(3pm) page from the perl manual (section 3pm), and here's the whole tea: it's a Perl data type class for the XML Schema defined simpleType TrackReference from the namespace http://www.onvif.org/ver10/schema. that's the name, bestie, that's the whole name 💅

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so this class is derived from ONVIF::PTZ::Types::ReferenceToken — like, it literally says so:

ONVIF::PTZ::Types::ReferenceToken

and here's the part that's giving so much freedom: SOAP::WSDL's schema implementation does not validate data, so you can use it exactly like it's base type. no extra hoops, no drama, just vibes 🦋

# Description of restrictions not implemented yet.

yep. that comment is literally sitting there in the source, unbothered, moisturized, in its own lane. restrictions? not implemented. periodt. 😭

---

🎀 METHODS 🎀

💫 new

Constructor. that's it, that's the whole thing — it makes a new one, iconic behaviour honestly.

💫 get_value / set_value

Getter and setter for the simpleType's value. you get the value, you set the value. balanced, symmetrical, slay ✨

🌈 OVERLOADING 🌈

depending on the simple type's base type, these operations get overloaded:

• Stringification
• Numerification
• Boolification

it's giving "same object, three whole personalities" 💀

for more info on that whole situation, go check SOAP::WSDL::XSD::Typelib::Builtin. it's the plug, iykyk 📚
