Did you try looking at it?
Bootstrap module providing the perl bridge
to get to the BOM interface functions.
....and after that it reduces to, basically:
package Bom;
require Exporter;
require DynaLoader;
@ISA = qw(Exporter DynaLoader);
@EXPORT = qw(
# sixty or so statements, a la (last three)
BOMBomEnumeratorNext
BOMBomEnumeratorSkip
BOMBomEnumeratorSkipAll
);
$VERSION = '1.1';
bootstrap Bom $VERSION;
1;
Ok, I'll bite, I don't get it either. The only other place it shows up
seems to be the directory /Library/Perl/darwin/auto/Bom, and the binary
file /Library/Perl/darwin/auto/Bom/Bom.bundle, which I can't make much
sense of.
Bumble Object Model?
