Thanks! I don't think this is suitable for what I have in mind as it wouldn't
let me get the directive being processed.
What I have in mind is something like...
Today's date is [% DATE %]
Normally I would have to say
$template->process($template, { DATE => $obj->date() }, ...);
For it to say Today's date is 06/30/2008.
What I want to be able to do is:
$template->process($template, {}, ...);
As you can notice, process() gets no $vars passed, so it has no clue what tags
to look for.
From inside the process() I would call:
@all_tags = $template->tags();
Inside process() (by way of override) I could then have a hook that does
something like this (expanded code for clarity - no error handling/checking):
foreach $tag (@all_tags)
{
$tagObject = new $tag;
$output .= $tagObject->run();
}
return $output;
Heck, if I really want to be greedy, I'd even ask for the processing code to
be a parameter that you could be passed so we could specify custom code for
tags so we wouldn't even have to override anything.
I might be the only person who'd like it. Tho my example is simple, there
could be potentially many other uses for it (as with anything else).
