Tie::Memoize - add data to hash when needed
SYNOPSIS
require Tie::Memoize;
tie %hash, 'Tie::Memoize',
&fetch, # The rest is optional
$DATA, &exists,
{%ini_value}, {%ini_existence};
DESCRIPTION
This package allows a tied hash to autoload its values on the first access, and to use the cached value on the following accesses.
Only read-accesses (via fetching the value or "exists") result in calls to the functions; the modify-accesses are performed as on a normal
hash.
The required arguments during "tie" are the hash, the package, and the reference to the "FETCH"ing function. The optional arguments are an
arbitrary scalar $data, the reference to the "EXISTS" function, and initial values of the hash and of the existence cache.
Both the "FETCH"ing function and the "EXISTS" functions have the same signature: the arguments are "$key, $data"; $data is the same value
as given as argument during tie()ing. Both functions should return an empty list if the value does not exist. If "EXISTS" function is
different from the "FETCH"ing function, it should return a TRUE value on success. The "FETCH"ing function should return the intended value
if the key is valid.
Inheriting from Tie::Memoize
The structure of the tied() data is an array reference with elements
0: cache of known values
1: cache of known existence of keys
2: FETCH function
3: EXISTS function
4: $data
The rest is for internal usage of this package. In particular, if TIEHASH is overwritten, it should call SUPER::TIEHASH.
EXAMPLE
sub slurp {
my ($key, $dir) = shift;
open my $h, '<', "$dir/$key" or return;
local $/; <$h> # slurp it all
}
sub exists { my ($key, $dir) = shift; return -f "$dir/$key" }
tie %hash, 'Tie::Memoize', &slurp, $directory, &exists,
{ fake_file1 => $content1, fake_file2 => $content2 },
{ pretend_does_not_exists => 0, known_to_exist => 1 };
This example treats the slightly modified contents of $directory as a hash. The modifications are that the keys fake_file1 and fake_file2
fetch values $content1 and $content2, and pretend_does_not_exists will never be accessed. Additionally, the existence of known_to_exist is
never checked (so if it does not exists when its content is needed, the user of %hash may be confused).
BUGS
FIRSTKEY and NEXTKEY methods go through the keys which were already read, not all the possible keys of the hash.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.
# When the shell exits, append to the history file instead of overwriting it

hi,
I am searching for a native tool on MacOS that can increase the resolution of a group of image files whose aspect ratios (file width versus height) vary widely. There are numerous files so I don't wish to do this manually. Someone suggested the sips command with the resampling option but... (5 Replies)

Hi all...
Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
Many tricky terminal escape codes are not catered for so I had to create workarounds.
One thing I searched for was this:
Passing perl variable to shell command
AND, @Neo this was... (15 Replies)
