=head1 NAME

Proc::ProcessTable - Perl extension to access the unix process table

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Proc::ProcessTable;

  $p = new Proc::ProcessTable( 'cache_ttys' => 1 ); 
  @fields = $p->fields;
  $ref = $p->table;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Perl interface to the unix process table.

=head1 METHODS

=over 4

=item new

Creates a new ProcessTable object. The constructor can take the following
flags:

enable_ttys -- causes the constructor to use the tty determination code,
which is the default behavior.  Setting this to 0 diables this code,
thus preventing the module from traversing the device tree, which on some
systems, can be quite large and/or contain invalid device paths (for example,
Solaris does not clean up invalid device entries when disks are swapped).  If
this is specified with cache_ttys, a warning is generated and the cache_ttys
is overriden to be false.

cache_ttys -- causes the constructor to look for and use a file that
caches a mapping of tty names to device numbers, and to create the
file if it doesn't exist (this file is /tmp/TTYDEVS by default). This
feature requires the Storable module.

=item fields

Returns a list of the field names supported by the module on the
current architecture.

=item table

Reads the process table and returns a reference to an array of
Proc::ProcessTable::Process objects. Attributes of a process object
are returned by accessors named for the attribute; for example, to get
the uid of a process just do:

$process->uid

The priority and pgrp methods also allow values to be set, since these
are supported directly by internal perl functions.

=head1 EXAMPLES

 # A cheap and sleazy version of ps
 use Proc::ProcessTable;

 $FORMAT = "%-6s %-10s %-8s %-24s %s\n";
 $t = new Proc::ProcessTable;
 printf($FORMAT, "PID", "TTY", "STAT", "START", "COMMAND"); 
 foreach $p ( @{$t->table} ){
   printf($FORMAT, 
          $p->pid, 
          $p->ttydev, 
          $p->state, 
          scalar(localtime($p->start)), 
          $p->cmndline);
 }


 # Dump all the information in the current process table
 use Proc::ProcessTable;

 $t = new Proc::ProcessTable;

 foreach $p (@{$t->table}) {
  print "--------------------------------\n";
  foreach $f ($t->fields){
    print $f, ":  ", $p->{$f}, "\n";
  }
 }
