=head1 NAME

RFID::EPC::Tag - An EPC tag.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

This class implements an EPC tag based on L.  It
allows tags to be created based on the fields of the various EPC tag
types, and allows tag IDs to be parsed into their EPC components.

Generally, you'll get these objects returend from an EPC RFID reader:

    use RFID::Gumbo::Reader::TCP;
    my $reader =
      RFID::Gumbo::Reader::TCP->new(PeerAddr => 10.20.30.40,
                                    PeerPort => 4001)
        or die "Couldn't create Blammo reader";
    my @tags = $reader->readtags();
    foreach my $tag (@tags)
    {
	if ($tag->type eq 'epc')
	{
	    my $epc_type = $tag->get('epc_type');
	    print "I see EPC tag ",$tag->id," of type $epc_type\n";
	}
    }

But you can also create a tag yourself, either with an ID string:

    my $tag = RFID::EPC::Tag->new(id => '357777777666666999999999');

or with the various componenets:

    my $tag =
      RFID::EPC::Tag->new(epc_serial => '999999999',
			  epc_manager => '7777777',
			  epc_class => '666666',
			  epc_type => 'GID-96');
    print "Tag ID is ",$tag->id,"\n";


=head1 DESCRIPTION

The parsing and tag creation in this module are based on the
specifications in EPCGlobal's I
Rev.1.24>, from April 1st 2004 (although it doesn't appear to be a
joke...).  See L for more information.

=head2 Constructor

=head3 new

Creates a new EPC tag object with the requested properties.

There are two general ways to create an EPC tag.  First, you can pass
in the tag ID number as a hex string with the parameter name I.
Second, you can pass in various components specific to your L
Type|/Tag Types>, including at least I.

    my $tag1 = RFID::EPC::Tag->new(id => '357777777666666999999999');

			  epc_manager => '7777777',
			  epc_class => '666666',
			  epc_type => 'GID-96');

Get a property of this tag.  In addition to the L

=head2 Tag Types

The EPC Tag Data Standards document defines many specific types of EPC
tags.  We do our best to parse these out, and return the appropriate
fields.  This isn't very well tested, since we don't have access to a
large number of different types of EPC tags, but it tries to follow
the spec, and should be easy to correct if any errors are found.

The purpose of the fields is beyond the scope of this document; we
assume you know what the fields are for, and just want to know what
names they are given in this code.  Mostly that's because it took EPC
78 pages to describe exactly what the tag types are, and I don't want
to repeat that here.  Look up the I document
referenced at the top of this documentation for more information.
