=head1 NAME

DAIA::Message - An optional information or error message

=head1 VERSION

version 0.421

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Messages can occurr as property of L<DAIA::Response>, L<DAIA::Document>,
L<DAIA::Item>, and L<DAIA::Availability> objects.

=head1 PROPERTIES

=over

=item content

The message as plain Unicode string. The default value
is the empty string.

=item lang

A mandatory RFC 3066 language code. The default value is defined in 
C<$DAIA::Message::DEFAULT_LANG> and set to C<'en'>.

=item errno

By default this property is set to C<undef>. You can set it to any integer
for error messages.

=back

The C<message> function is a shortcut for the DAIA::Message constructor:

  $msg = DAIA::Message->new( ... );
  $msg = message( ... );

The constructor understands several abbreviated ways to define a message:

  $msg = message( $content [, lang => $lang ] )
  $msg = message( $lang => $content )
  $msg = message( $lang => $content )

To set or get all messages of an object, you use the C<messages> accessor.
You can pass an array reference or an array:

  $messages = $document->message;  # returns an array reference

  $document->message( [ $msg1, $msg2 ] );
  $document->message( [ $msg ] );
  $document->message( $msg1, $msg2);
  $document->message( $msg );

To append a message you can use the C<add> or the C<addMessage> method:

  $document->add( $msg );         # $msg must be a DAIA::Message
  $document->addMessage( ... );   # ... is passed to message constructor

=head1 FUNCTIONS

=head2 is_language_tag ( $tag )

Returns whether $tag is a formally valid language tag. The regular expression
follows XML Schema type C<xs:language> instead of RFC 3066. For true RFC 3066 
support have a look at L<I18N::LangTags>.
