Source: data-dumper
Maintainer: Michael Alan Dorman <mdorman@debian.org>
Standards-Version: 2.3.0.0
Package: data-dumper
Architecture: all
Depends: perl
Description: Store and retrieve perl data structures
You may find this module useful if you:
.
* are writing an application that must display perl data
structures.
.
* want to store some data structures to disk, in either a
compact or perl readable format (Dumper outputs pure perl,
so you don't have to invent your own portable data format, or
parse it; simply "do FILE" or read the data back in with
perl and eval() it). See the MLDBM module for an example of
one such use.
.
* want a simple, yet powerful, persistence engine that can be
quickly integrated into your application, and is a breeze to
debug.
.
* want a facility to make copies of data, or quickly find
differences between data structures.
