DSLIP: adpOp
description: OO questionaire system with callbacks

Several other questionaire systems
rationale:
Term::Questionaire provides a simplified system for asking a series
of questions at the terminal prompt and collecting responses.
Term::Questionaire provides an object oriented approach to
questions. The entire questionaire is an object, and each question
is an object within the questionaire. Several different object
classes are available to represent different data types, including
string, array, hash, yes/no, numeric, and file path. The classes are
also designed to allow for adding more data types. Each question can
be marked as active or inactive... inactive questions are skipped
when the questionaire is run. Several data validation properties can
be set such as required, minimum, maximum, if the file path must
exist, if you must have read/write permissions to the path, and
others. Speaking of "others", list-based questions (array and hash)
can be set to allow the user to select an "other" option at the end
of the list and enter their own value. In addition to the property
based data validation, questions can be set to call a callback
subroutine which can be used for any complex data validation you
like, and also to set other questions as active or inactive.
