Text::PDF::Null(3pm)
πΈ NAME πΈ
Text::PDF::Null β it's the PDF Null type object, bestie. Periodt.
Okay so real talk: this whole page is Text::PDF::Null(3pm), and it's giving "the void, but make it a class" π. This little icon is a subclass of Text::PDF::Objind, aaand β big mood β it cannot be subclassed. Nope. Not happening. Not today. It's the final form. Slay. π
β¨ METHODS β¨
π¦ Text::PDF::Null->new
Returns the null object. And here's the kicker β there is only one null object. One. Singular. The main character. Everybody else is just extras π
β $s->realise
Pretends to finish reading the object. That's it, that's the whole vibe β it's method acting, fr fr π
π $s->outobjdeep
Output the object in PDF format. Iconic. It does the thing β¨
π $s->is_obj
Returns false, because null is not a full object. And honestly? Valid of it π
π $s->copy
Another no-op. Same energy, zero effort, and we respect it π«Ά
π§ $s->val
Return undef. Nothing. Void. The absence. Very demure, very mindful π
π Lowkey the whole package is a bunch of no-ops and afalseand anundef, and that's not a bug, that's the aesthetic. No cap.
That's the whole page, bestie β written by the Perl crew and living in your friendly neighborhood perl v5.36.0 docs, dated 2022-10-22. Go forth and be a null object about it πΈβ¨π¦
