# NAME

CPANPLUS::Backend::RV

# SYNOPSIS

        ### create a CPANPLUS::Backend::RV object    $backend_rv     = CPANPLUS::Backend::RV->new(                                ok          => $boolean,                                args        => $args,                                rv          => $return_value                                function    => $calling_function );    ### if you have a CPANPLUS::Backend::RV object    $passed_args    = $backend_rv->args;    # args passed to function    $ok             = $backend_rv->ok;      # boolean indication overall                                            # result of the call    $function       = $backend_rv->fucntion # name of the calling                                            # function    $rv             = $backend_rv->rv       # the actual return value                                            # of the calling function

# DESCRIPTION

This module provides return value objects for multi-module calls to CPANPLUS::Backend. In boolean context, it returns the status of the overall result (ie, the same as the `ok` method would).

# METHODS

## new( ok => BOOL, args => DATA, rv => DATA, [function => $method_name] )

Creates a new CPANPLUS::Backend::RV object from the data provided. This method should only be called by CPANPLUS::Backend functions. The accessors may be used by users inspecting an RV object.

All the argument names can be used as accessors later to retrieve the data.

Arguments:

- ok

  Boolean indicating overall success

- args

  The arguments provided to the function that returned this rv object. Useful to inspect later to see what was actually passed to the function in case of an error.

- rv

  An arbitrary data structure that has the detailed return values of each of your multi-module calls.

- function

  The name of the function that created this rv object. Can be explicitly passed. If not, `new()` will try to deduce the name from `caller()` information.
