read_menu — read the XML menu files and create menu record structure
use Wacs;
use Wacs::WacsUI;
read_menu( | menu_filename); |
scalar menu_filename;The read_menu reads the specified menu XML
file into the internal data structures of the wacsui object. It should
be called before using any of the other menu routines. For the standard
system menus, the collection management tools look up the configuration
variable mainmenu in the layout
section which by default tells them to use the file
menu.cfg in the wacs config directory (usually
/etc/wacs.d).
You can edit the standard menu file to add your own additional menu
definitions for use in specific applications.
If your application wishes to use an alternate namespace, you could specify
an alternate menu config name, something like mysite.cfg
and also place it in the wacs config directory.
