## NAME

Lire::Records - Base class for implementation of the records operator.

## SYNOPSIS

```
    use Lire::Records;

## CONSTRUCTOR

### new( %params )

Creates a new instance of a records operator. In addition to the normal report operator parameters, the records operator takes one additional parameter:

- fields

  A reference to an array containing the names of the DLF field that should be included in the report.

## METHOD

### fields( \[$new\_fields\] )

Returns a reference to an array containing the DLF field names that will be included in the report.

You can use the `$new_fields` parameter to change that value.

### ops()
