Win32::Wlan - Query wlan properties

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    require Win32::Wlan;
    my $wlan = Win32::Wlan->new;
    if ($wlan->available) {
        print "Connected to ", $wlan->connection->{profile_name},"\n";
        print "I see the following networks\n";
        for ($wlan->visible_networks) {
            printf "%s\t-%d dbm\n", $_->{name}, $_->{signal_quality};
        };

    } else {
        print "No Wlan detected (or switched off)\n";
    };

=head1 METHODS

=head2 C<< Win32::Wlan->new( %args ) >>

    my $wlan = Win32::Wlan->new();

Creates a new Win32::Wlan object.

=item *

C - optional argument to force detection of general Wlan availability

C - optional argument to give an existing Wlan handle to the object

C - optional argument to give an existing guuid to the object

=head2 C<< $wlan->handle >>

Returns the Windows API handle for the Wlan API.

=cut

sub handle { $_[0]->{handle} };

=head2 C<< $wlan->interface >>

    print $wlan->interface->{name};

Returns a hashref describing the interface. The keys are
C for the guuid, C for the human-readable name and
C for the status of the interface.

=cut

sub interface { $_[0]->{interface} };

=head2 C<< $wlan->available >>

    $wlan->available
        or warn "Wlan API is not available";

Returns whether the Wlan API is available. The Wlan API is available
on Windows XP SP3 or higher.

=cut

sub available { $_[0]->{available} };

=head2 C<< $wlan->connected >>

    $wlan->connected
        or warn "Wlan connection unavailable";

Returns whether a Wlan connection is established. No connection is established
when Wlan is switched off or no access point is in range.

=cut

sub connected {
    my $conn = $_[0]->connection;
    defined $conn->{profile_name} && $conn->{profile_name}

=head2 C<< $wlan->connection >>

    if ($wlan->connected) {
        print "Connected to ";
        print $wlan->connection->{profile_name};
    };

Returns information about the current connection in a hashref. The keys
are

=item *

C - the name of the profile of the current connection

};

=head2 C<< $wlan->visible_networks >>

Returns information about the currently visible networks as a list of
hashrefs.

=over 4

=item *

C - the SSID of the network

=item *

C - the signal quality ranging linearly from 0 to 100
meaning -100 dbm to -50 dbm
