library.comp Subroutines

The library component is the MasonSQL root component which initializes logging, includes most essential Perl modules and provides a couple of commonly used subroutines.

Subroutine Name	Parameters	Description	Example
request_to_comp_path()	$comp_name	Tries to find component file-path using the comp_root parameter.	my $report_file = request_to_comp_path($r->dir_config('DataBaseUrl').'/'.$report_name.'.rep');
LoadHeader()	$comp	Tries to determine component type then loads the $Global{LoadHeader_<component_type>} with corresponding HTML header string.	LoadHeader 'SELF'; &LoadHeader('/lib/httpRequestMason.js', '/lib/library.js', '/lib/databinding.js', '/lib/displaybinding.js'); &LoadHeader('/lib/hReqMason_ClientMason.js');br>&LoadHeader('/test/dojo/test_dojo_buttons.css'); Many more similar examples can be found in the /opt/masonsql/htdocs/ directory tree.
initBrowserDetect()		Detects browser and uses the acquired information to set the following variables: $Session{Browser}, $Session{IE}, $Session{IE8}, $Session{IE7} For IE browsers also sets the Apache2 compatibility mode: $r->headers_out->{'X-UA-Compatible'}	initBrowserDetect();

The subroutines are defined inside the <%once> block.
