NAME

Tie::File::Indexed::StorableN - tied array access to indexed data files: Storable-encoded references (network byte-order)

SYNOPSIS

use Tie::File::Indexed::StorableN;
tie(my @data, 'Tie::File::Indexed::StorableN', $filename, %options) or die ...

##-- add some data
$data[0] = {foo=>'bar'}; # transparently encode/decode perl hashes
$data[1] = [1..10];      # ... or arrays
$data[2] = \42;          # ... or scalar-refs
$data[3] = undef;        # ... or undef
print $data[1];          # retrieve & print a stored value

DESCRIPTION

Tie::File::Indexed::StorableN provides a Tie::File::Indexed subclass for storing arrays of perl data structures encoded using the Storable module. Data items are written in "network" byte-order using Storable::nstore_fd().

See "SUBCLASSES" in Tie::File::Indexed for an overview of the built-in Tie::File::Indexed subclasses.
