Version 0.0.0

SYNOPSIS

Top

    use FreeBSD::Ports;

    my $ports = FreeBSD::Ports->new();




METHODES

Top

new

do

This runs a specified make type. Please see ports(7) for more information on the available types.

Three arguements are accepted. The first is the type. The second is the port. The third is a string containing any options to be appended.

    $ports->do('install', 'www/firefox');
    if($ports->{error}){
        print "Errot!\n;";
    }

errorblank

This blanks the error storage and is only meant for internal usage.

It does the following.

    $self->{error}=undef;
    $self->{errorString}='';
