It takes a list of scalars and code-refs and returns a code-ref which checks that the hashref it receives matches either all or none of the options given. =cut sub all_or_none_of { my @options = @_; return bless sub { my $hashref = shift; if($Params::Validate::Dependencies::DOC) { return $Params::Validate::Dependencies::DOC->_doc_me(list => \@options); } my $count = 0; foreach my $option (@options) { $count++ if( (!ref($option) && exists($hashref->{$option})) || (ref($option) && $option->($hashref)) ); } return ($count == 0 || $count == $#options + 1); }, __PACKAGE__; } sub join_with { return 'or'; } sub name { return 'all_or_none_of'; } =head1 LIES Some of the above is incorrect. If you really want to know what's going on, look at L. =head1 BUGS, LIMITATIONS, and FEEDBACK I like to know who's using my code. All comments, including constructive criticism, are welcome. Please report any bugs either by email or using L or at L. Bug reports should contain enough detail that I can replicate the problem and write a test. The best bug reports have those details in the form of a .t file. If you also include a patch I will love you for ever. =head1 SEE ALSO L L =head1 SOURCE CODE REPOSITORY L L =head1 COPYRIGHT and LICENCE Copyright 2011 David Cantrell EFE This software is free-as-in-speech software, and may be used, distributed, and modified under the terms of either the GNU General Public Licence version 2 or the Artistic Licence.
