NAME

OpenGL::Sandbox::MMap - Wrapper around a memory-mapped scalar ref

VERSION

version 0.120

SYNOPSIS

my $mmap= OpenGL::Sandbox::MMap->new("Filename.ttf");

DESCRIPTION

This is a simple wrapper around File::Map to make it more convenient to open read-only memory-mapped files, and to make sure they are distinctly held as references and not accidentally copied into perl scalars.

ATTRIBUTES

size

Number of bytes mapped from file. Same as length($$mmap)

METHODS

new

my $mmap= OpenGL::Sandbox::MMap->new($filename);

Return a blessed reference to a scalar which points to memory-mapped data. $filename is always opened read-only.
