* Package name : libtie-refhash-weak-perl Version : 0.09 Upstream Author : Yuval Kogman <[email protected]> * URL : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Tie-RefHash-Weak/ * License : Artistic or GPL-1+ Programming Lang: Perl Description : Tie::RefHash subclass with weakened references in the keys Tie::RefHash can be used to access hashes by reference. This is useful when you index by object, for example. The problem with Tie::RefHash, and cross indexing, is that sometimes the index should not contain strong references to the objecs. The internal structures of Tie::RefHash contain strong references to the key, and provide no convenient means to make those references weak. This subclass of Tie::RefHash has weak keys, instead of strong ones. The values are left unaltered, and you'll have to make sure there are no strong references there yourself. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
