27 An FS::hardware_type object represents a device type (a model name or
28 number) assignable as a hardware service (L<FS::svc_hardware)>).
29 FS::hardware_type inherits from FS::Record. The following fields are
34 =item typenum - primary key
36 =item classnum - key to an L<FS::hardware_class> record defining the class
37 to which this device type belongs.
39 =item model - descriptive model name or number
41 =item revision - revision name/number, subordinate to model
51 Creates a new record. To add the record to the database, see L<"insert">.
53 Note that this stores the hash reference, not a distinct copy of the hash it
54 points to. You can ask the object for a copy with the I<hash> method.
58 # the new method can be inherited from FS::Record, if a table method is defined
60 sub table { 'hardware_type'; }
64 Adds this record to the database. If there is an error, returns the error,
65 otherwise returns false.
69 # the insert method can be inherited from FS::Record
73 Delete this record from the database.
77 # the delete method can be inherited from FS::Record
79 =item replace OLD_RECORD
81 Replaces the OLD_RECORD with this one in the database. If there is an error,
82 returns the error, otherwise returns false.
86 # the replace method can be inherited from FS::Record
90 Checks all fields to make sure this is a valid hardware type. If there is
91 an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false. Called by the insert
96 # the check method should currently be supplied - FS::Record contains some
97 # data checking routines
