Tie and HASHREF's

[Bradley M. Handy]

I am wondering about the use of tie with hashes and then returning a
reference to that tied hash.

If have the following code:

##--- Begin Code


#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use Apache::Session::DB_File;

my %session;
tie %session, Apache::Session::DB_File, ,
        {FileName=>'/path/to/db_file', LockDirectory=>'path/to/'};
my $hashref = \%session;

##--- End Code

Is

        $hashref->{session_var} = session_value;

the same as

        $session{session_var} = session_value;
