=head1 NAME
Tie::Handle - base class definitions for tied handles
=head1 SYNOPSIS
package NewHandle;
require Tie::Handle;
@ISA = qw(Tie::Handle);
sub READ { ... } # Provide a needed method
sub TIEHANDLE { ... } # Overrides inherited method
package main;
tie *FH, 'NewHandle';
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module provides some skeletal methods for handle-tying classes. See
L<perltie> for a list of the functions required in tying a handle to a package.
The basic B<Tie::Handle> package provides a C<new> method, as well as methods
C<TIEHANDLE>, C<PRINT>, C<PRINTF> and C<GETC>.
For developers wishing to write their own tied-handle classes, the methods
are summarized below. The L<perltie> section not only documents these, but
has sample code as well:
=over 4
=item TIEHANDLE classname, LIST
The method invoked by the command C<tie *glob, classname>. Associates a new
glob instance with the specified class. C<LIST> would represent additional
arguments (along the lines of L<AnyDBM_File> and compatriots) needed to
complete the association.
=item WRITE this, scalar, length, offset
Write I<length> bytes of data from I<scalar> starting at I<offset>.
=item PRINT this, LIST
Print the values in I<LIST>
=item PRINTF this, format, LIST
Print the values in I<LIST> using I<format>
=item READ this, scalar, length, offset
Read I<length> bytes of data into I<scalar> starting at I<offset>.
=item READLINE this
Read a single line
=item GETC this
Get a single character
=item CLOSE this
Close the handle
=item OPEN this, filename
(Re-)open the handle
=item BINMODE this
Specify content is binary
=item EOF this
Test for end of file.
=item TELL this
Return position in the file.
=item SEEK this, offset, whence
Position the file.
Test for end of file.
=item DESTROY this
Free the storage associated with the tied handle referenced by I<this>.
This is rarely needed, as Perl manages its memory quite well. But the
option exists, should a class wish to perform specific actions upon the
destruction of an instance.

=head1 MORE INFORMATION
The L<perltie> section contains an example of tying handles.
=head1 COMPATIBILITY
This version of Tie::Handle is neither related to nor compatible with
the Tie::Handle (3.0) module available on CPAN. It was due to an
accident that two modules with the same name appeared. The namespace
clash has been cleared in favor of this module that comes with the
perl core in September 2000 and accordingly the version number has
been bumped up to 4.0.
