28 An FS::hardware_type object represents a device type (a model name or
29 number) assignable as a hardware service (L<FS::svc_hardware)>).
30 FS::hardware_type inherits from FS::Record. The following fields are
35 =item typenum - primary key
37 =item classnum - key to an L<FS::hardware_class> record defining the class
38 to which this device type belongs.
40 =item model - descriptive model name or number
50 Creates a new record. To add the record to the database, see L<"insert">.
52 Note that this stores the hash reference, not a distinct copy of the hash it
53 points to. You can ask the object for a copy with the I<hash> method.
57 # the new method can be inherited from FS::Record, if a table method is defined
59 sub table { 'hardware_type'; }
63 Adds this record to the database. If there is an error, returns the error,
64 otherwise returns false.
68 # the insert method can be inherited from FS::Record
72 Delete this record from the database.
76 # the delete method can be inherited from FS::Record
78 =item replace OLD_RECORD
80 Replaces the OLD_RECORD with this one in the database. If there is an error,
81 returns the error, otherwise returns false.
85 # the replace method can be inherited from FS::Record
89 Checks all fields to make sure this is a valid hardware type. If there is
90 an error, returns the error, otherwise returns false. Called by the insert
95 # the check method should currently be supplied - FS::Record contains some
96 # data checking routines
