SYNOPSIS

use Tree::Simple::Visitor::VariableDepthClone;
# create an visitor
my $visitor = Tree::Simple::Visitor::VariableDepthClone->new();
$visitor->setCloneDepth(3);
# pass our visitor to the tree
$tree->accept($visitor);
my $partial_tree = $visitor->getClone();

DESCRIPTION

METHODS

new

There are no arguments to the constructor the object will be in its default state. You can use the "setNodeFilter" method to customize its behavior.

includeTrunk ($boolean)

Based upon the value of $boolean, this will tell the visitor to include the trunk of the tree in the traversal as well. This basically means it will clone the root node as well.

setCloneDepth ($number)

setNodeFilter ($filter_function)

This method accepts a CODE reference as its $filter_function argument and throws an exception if it is not a code reference. This code reference is used to filter the tree nodes as they are cloned.

visit ($tree)

This is the method that is used by Tree::Simple's "accept" method. It can also be used on its own, it requires the $tree argument to be a Tree::Simple object (or derived from a Tree::Simple object), and will throw and exception otherwise.

getClone

This method returns the cloned partial tree.
