# Net::DRI::Data::ContactSet(3pm)

Handle an ordered collection of contacts for Net::DRI

## NAME

Net::DRI::Data::ContactSet - Handle an ordered collection of contacts for Net::DRI

## DESCRIPTION

This class encapsulates a set of contacts, with associated types. For each type, it can stores as many contacts as needed. Contacts are compared among themselves by calling the *id()* method on them. Thus all Contact classes must define such a method, which returns a string.

## METHODS

### *new()*

creates a new object

### *types()*

returns the list of current types stored in this class

### *has\_type()*

returns 1 if the given type as first argument has some contacts in this object, 0 otherwise

### *add()*

with the first argument being a contact, and the second (optional) a type, adds the contact to the list of contacts for this type or all types (if no second argument). If the contact already exists (same *id()*), it will be replaced when found. Returns the object itself.

### *del()*

the opposite of *add()*

### *rem()*

alias for *del()*

### *clear()*

removes all contact currently associated to all types

### *set()*

with an array ref as first argument, and a type (optional) as second, set the current list of the given type (or all types) to be the list of contacts in first argument. Returns the object itself.

### *get()*

returns list (in list context) or first element of list (in scalar context) for the type given as argument

### *get\_all()*

returns list of contacts, without duplicates, for all types
