								<div style="text-align: left;">The <span style="font-weight: bold;">baseModule</span>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								is the parent class of all account modules. <br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								It implements most functions of the <a
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								 href="modules-specification.htm">module interface</a> and provides
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the possibility to use <span style="font-style: italic;">meta data</span>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								for the module functions.<br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								There are also some class variables which are useful for the child
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								classes.<br>
							 | 
						||

								<h2>Meta data</h2>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								The <span style="font-weight: bold;">baseModule</span> allows you to
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								not implement the <a href="modules-specification.htm">module
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								interface</a> directly but to provide <span style="font-style: italic;">meta
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								data</span> which is interpreted by the <span
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								 style="font-weight: bold;">baseModule</span>.<br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								If you do not use certain functions of the interface the <span
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								 style="font-weight: bold;">baseModule</span> also provides dummy
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								functions. E.g. if your module needs no configuration option you can
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								just skip this function in your code and the <span
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								 style="font-weight: bold;">baseModule</span> will tell the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								configuration part that there is no option.<br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								To <span style="font-style: italic;">define meta</span> data you have
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								to implement the function <span
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								 style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">get_metaData()</span>.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								This function must return a hash array with the meta options as array
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								keys.<br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								Please refer to the <a href="modules-specification.htm">module
