2 # module to manage channel lists & data
4 # This is the base class for all channel operations, which is everything to do
5 # with input and output really.
7 # The instance variable in the outside world will be generally be called $dxchann
9 # This class is 'inherited' (if that is the goobledegook for what I am doing)
10 # by various other modules. The point to understand is that the 'instance variable'
11 # is in fact what normal people would call the state vector and all useful info
12 # about a connection goes in there.
14 # Another point to note is that a vector may contain a list of other vectors.
15 # I have simply added another variable to the vector for 'simplicity' (or laziness
16 # as it is more commonly called)
18 # PLEASE NOTE - I am a C programmer using this as a method of learning perl
19 # firstly and OO about ninthly (if you don't like the design and you can't
20 # improve it with better OO by make it smaller and more efficient, then tough).
