        First release!

ABSTRACT

        Interprets and visualizes the data POE::Devel::Profiler produces

DESCRIPTION

This small program handles parsing the data and passing it to a Visualization module. Included in this distribution is one Visualizer, 'BasicSummary'. As I have time, more visualizers will be added, hopefully some nice graphs :)

The desired Visualizer must be the first argument, and the rest of the arguments will be passed intact to the Visualizer for further processing.

Visualizer Developer Documentation

Okay, you want to code your own Visualizer! All you need to do is look at POE::Devel::Profiler::Visualizer::BasicSummary to get a general idea of what to do.

Requirements

        The visualizer must reside in the POE::Devel::Profiler::Visualizer namespace

        The visualizer must define 2 subroutines: GET_ARGS and OUTPUT
                GET_ARGS will be called at the start, the Visualizer can grab arguments from @ARGV
                OUTPUT will be called with a pointer to the massive data structure :)

Data Structure??

For now, the source to POE::Devel::Profiler::Parser contains the entire data structure, play around with Devel::Dumper if necessary :(
