# Net::AMQP::Protocol::Base(3pm)

Base class of auto-generated protocol classes

## NAME

Net::AMQP::Protocol::Base - Base class of auto-generated protocol classes

## DESCRIPTION

See "load\_xml\_spec" in Net::AMQP::Protocol for how subclasses to this class are auto-generated.

## CLASS METHODS

### class\_id

The class id from the specficiation.

### method\_id

The method id from the specification.  In the case of a content \<class\> (such as Basic, File or Stream), method\_id is 0 for the virtual ContentHeader method.  This allows you to create a Header frame in much the same way you create a Method frame, but with the virtual method 'ContentHeader'.  For example:

```
  my $header_frame = Net::AMQP::Protocol::Basic::ContentHeader->new(
    content_type => 'text/html'
  );
  print $header_frame->method_id(); # prints '0'
```

### frame\_arguments

Contains an ordered arrayref of the fields that comprise a frame for this method.  For example:

```
  Net::AMQP::Protocol::Channel::Open->frame_arguments([
      out_of_band => 'short_string'
  ]);
```

This is used by the Net::AMQP::Frame subclasses to (de)serialize raw binary data.  Each of these fields are also an accessor for the class objects.

### class\_spec

Contains the hashref that the `"load_xml_spec()"` call generated for this class.

### method\_spec

Same as above, but for this method.

## OBJECT METHODS

### frame\_wrap

Returns a Net::AMQP::Frame subclass object that wraps the given object, if possible.
