Hi Paul, <quote who="paul POULAIN"> > (notes i speak here of UNIMARC. loc is down at the moment, but i think > leaders are the same in marc21 and in unimarc)
Since LoC is still down you can refer to http://search.cpan.org/src/PETDANCE/MARC-Record-1.29/etc/ecbdlist.html > So my question : > Am I wrong or could we add $record->ldrcalc() to MARC::Record that > calculates the leader (for calculable digits) and returns it ? > We could use $record->leader($record->ldrcalc()); I never had to worry about the record_length (pos 00-04) or the base_address (pos 12-16) in the leader. I think they are automagically updated while writing the record via $rec->as_usmarc(). Regards, Saiful Indian School of Business Hyderabad. India Ph. +91-40-2318-7963/7999 http://purl.org/net/saiful
