(initializing code) + + __DATA__ + sub {.... + + +=head1 DESCRIPTION + +This module tells its users that functions in the FOOBAR package are to be +autoloaded from after the C<__DATA__> token. See also +L<perlsub/"Autoloading">. + +=head2 The __DATA__ token + +The C<__DATA__> token tells the perl compiler that the perl code +for compilation is finished. Everything after the C<__DATA__> token +is available for reading via the filehandle FOOBAR::DATA, +where FOOBAR is the name of the current package when the C<__DATA__> +token is reached. This works just the same as C<__END__> does in +package 'main', but for other modules data after C<__END__> is not +automatically retrievable, whereas data after C<__DATA__> is. +The C<__DATA__> token is not recognized in versions of perl prior to +5.001m. + +Note that it is possible to have C<__DATA__> tokens in the same package +in multiple files, and that the last C<__DATA__> token in a given +package that is encountered by the compiler is the one accessible +by the filehandle. This also applies to C<__END__> and main, i.e. if +the 'main' program has an C<__END__>, but a module 'require'd (_not_ 'use'd) +by that program has a 'package main;' declaration followed by an 'C<__DATA__>', +then the C<DATA> filehandle is set to access the data after the C<__DATA__> +in the module, _not_ the data after the C<__END__> token in the 'main' +program, since the compiler encounters the 'require'd file later. + +=head2 SelfLoader autoloading + +The B<SelfLoader> works by the user placing the C<__DATA__> +token I<after> perl code which needs to be compiled and +run at 'require' time, but I<before> subroutine declarations +that can be loaded in later - usually because they may never +be called. + +The B<SelfLoader> will read from the FOOBAR::DATA filehandle to +load in the data after C<__DATA__>, and load in any subroutine +when it is called. The costs are the one-time parsing of the +data after C<__DATA__>, and a load delay for the _first_ +call of any autoloaded function. The benefits (hopefully) +are a speeded up compilation phase, with no need to load +functions which are never used. + +The B<SelfLoader> will stop reading from C<__DATA__> if +it encounters the C<__END__> token - just as you would expect. +If the C<__END__> token is present, and is followed by the +token DATA, then the B<SelfLoader> leaves the FOOBAR::DATA +filehandle open on the line after that token. + +The B<SelfLoader> exports the C<AUTOLOAD> subroutine to the +package using the B<SelfLoader>, and this loads the called +subroutine when it is first called. + +There is no advantage to putting subroutines which will _always_ +be called after the C<__DATA__> token. + +=head2 Autoloading and package lexicals + +A 'my $pack_lexical' statement makes the variable $pack_lexical +local _only_ to the file up to the C<__DATA__> token. Subroutines +declared elsewhere _cannot_ see these types of variables, +just as if you declared subroutines in the package but in another +file, they cannot see these variables. + +So specifically, autoloaded functions cannot see package +lexicals (this applies to both the B<SelfLoader> and the Autoloader). +The C<vars> pragma provides an alternative to defining package-level +globals that will be visible to autoloaded routines. See the documentation +on B<vars> in the pragma section of L<perlmod>. + +=head2 SelfLoader and AutoLoader + +The B<SelfLoader> can replace the AutoLoader - just change 'use AutoLoader' +to 'use SelfLoader' (though note that the B<SelfLoader> exports +the AUTOLOAD function - but if you have your own AUTOLOAD and +are using the AutoLoader too, you probably know what you're doing), +and the C<__END__> token to C<__DATA__>. You will need perl version 5.001m +or later to use this (version 5.001 with all patches up to patch m). + +There is no need to inherit from the B<SelfLoader>. + +The B<SelfLoader> works similarly to the AutoLoader, but picks up the +subs from after the C<__DATA__> instead of in the 'lib/auto' directory. +There is a maintenance gain in not needing to run AutoSplit on the module +at installation, and a runtime gain in not needing to keep opening and +closing files to load subs. There is a runtime loss in needing +to parse the code after the C<__DATA__>. Details of the B<AutoLoader> and +another view of these distinctions can be found in that module's +documentation. + +=head2 __DATA__, __END__, and the FOOBAR::DATA filehandle. + +This section is only relevant if you want to use +the C<FOOBAR::DATA> together with the B<SelfLoader>. + +Data after the C<__DATA__> token in a module is read using the +FOOBAR::DATA filehandle. C<__END__> can still be used to denote the end +of the C<__DATA__> section if followed by the token DATA - this is supported +by the B<SelfLoader>. The C<FOOBAR::DATA> filehandle is left open if an +C<__END__> followed by a DATA is found, with the filehandle positioned at +the start of the line after the C<__END__> token. If no C<__END__> token is +present, or an C<__END__> token with no DATA token on the same line, then +the filehandle is closed. + +The B<SelfLoader> reads from wherever the current +position of the C<FOOBAR::DATA> filehandle is, until the +EOF or C<__END__>. This means that if you want to use +that filehandle (and ONLY if you want to), you should either + +1. Put all your subroutine declarations immediately after +the C<__DATA__> token and put your own data after those +declarations, using the C<__END__> token to mark the end +of subroutine declarations. You must also ensure that the B<SelfLoader> +reads first by calling 'SelfLoader-E<gt>load_stubs();', or by using a +function which is selfloaded; + +or + +2. You should read the C<FOOBAR::DATA> filehandle first, leaving +the handle open and positioned at the first line of subroutine +declarations. + +You could conceivably do both. + +=head2 Classes and inherited methods. + +For modules which are not classes, this section is not relevant. +This section is only relevant if you have methods which could +be inherited. + +A subroutine stub (or forward declaration) looks like + + sub stub; + +i.e. it is a subroutine declaration without the body of the +subroutine. For modules which are not classes, there is no real +need for stubs as far as autoloading is concerned. + +For modules which ARE classes, and need to handle inherited methods, +stubs are needed to ensure that the method inheritance mechanism works +properly. You can load the stubs into the module at 'require' time, by +adding the statement 'SelfLoader-E<gt>load_stubs();' to the module to do +this. + +The alternative is to put the stubs in before the C<__DATA__> token BEFORE +releasing the module, and for this purpose the C<Devel::SelfStubber> +module is available. However this does require the extra step of ensuring +that the stubs are in the module. If this is done I strongly recommend +that this is done BEFORE releasing the module - it should NOT be done +at install time in general. + +=head1 Multiple packages and fully qualified subroutine names + +Subroutines in multiple packages within the same file are supported - but you +should note that this requires exporting the C<SelfLoader::AUTOLOAD> to +every package which requires it. This is done automatically by the +B<SelfLoader> when it first loads the subs into the cache, but you should +really specify it in the initialization before the C<__DATA__> by putting +a 'use SelfLoader' statement in each package. + +Fully qualified subroutine names are also supported. For example, + + __DATA__ + sub foo::bar {23} + package baz; + sub dob {32} + +will all be loaded correctly by the B<SelfLoader>, and the B<SelfLoader> +will ensure that the packages 'foo' and 'baz' correctly have the +B<SelfLoader> C<AUTOLOAD> method when the data after C<__DATA__> is first +parsed. + +=head1 AUTHOR + +C<SelfLoader> is maintained by the perl5-porters.
