=head1 NAME

B<EPrints::MetaField> - A single metadata field.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

my $field = $dataset->field( $fieldname );

$dataset = $field->dataset;

$repo = $field->repository;

$field->set_property( $property, $value );

$value = $field->property( $property );

$name = $field->name;

$type = $field->type;

$xhtml = $field->render_name;

$xhtml = $field->render_help;

$xhtml = $field->render_value_label( $value );

$values = $field->all_values( %opts );

$sorted_list = $field->sort_values( $unsorted_list );


=head1 DESCRIPTION

This object represents a single metadata field, not the value of
that field. A field belongs (usually) to a dataset and has a large
number of properties. Optional and required properties vary between 
types.

"type" is the most important property, it is the type of the metadata
field. For example: "text", "name" or "date".

A full description of metadata types and properties is in the eprints
documentation and will not be duplicated here.

=head1 PROPERTIES

=over 4

=item provenance => "core" or "config"

Indiciates where the field was initialised from. "core" fields are defined in L<DataObj> classes while "config" fields are defined in cfg.d files.

=item replace_core => 0

Normally any attempt to define two fields with the same name will fail. However, you can replace a core system field by specifying the "replace_core" property. This should be used very carefully!

#
# INSTANCE VARIABLES:
#
#  $self->{confid}
#     The conf-id of the dataset to which this field belongs. If this
#     field is not part of a dataset then this is just a string used 
#     to find config info about this field. Most importantly the name
#     and other information from the phrase file.
#
#  $self->{repository}
#     The repository to which this field belongs.
#
# The rest of the instance variables are the properties of the field.
# The most important properties (which are always required) are:
#
#  $self->{name}
#     The name of this field.
#
#  $self->{type}
#     The type of this field.

=item $field = EPrints::MetaField->new( %properties )

Create a new metafield. %properties is a hash of the properties of the 
field, with the addition of "dataset", or if "dataset" is not set then
"confid" and "repository" must be provided instead.

Some field types require certain properties to be explicitly set. See
the main documentation.
