package IO::Stringy; use strict; use Exporter; our $VERSION = '2.113'; 1; __END__ =head1 NAME IO-stringy - I/O on in-core objects like strings and arrays =head1 SYNOPSIS use strict; use warnings; use IO::AtomicFile; # Write a file which is updated atomically use IO::InnerFile; # define a file inside another file use IO::Lines; # I/O handle to read/write to array of lines use IO::Scalar; # I/O handle to read/write to a string use IO::ScalarArray; # I/O handle to read/write to array of scalars use IO::Wrap; # Wrap old-style FHs in standard OO interface use IO::WrapTie; # Tie your handles & retain full OO interface # ... =head1 DESCRIPTION This toolkit primarily provides modules for performing both traditional and object-oriented i/o) on things I<other> than normal filehandles; in particular, L<IO::Scalar|IO::Scalar>, L<IO::ScalarArray|IO::ScalarArray>, and L<IO::Lines|IO::Lines>. In the more-traditional IO::Handle front, we have L<IO::AtomicFile|IO::AtomicFile> which may be used to painlessly create files which are updated atomically. And in the "this-may-prove-useful" corner, we have L<IO::Wrap|IO::Wrap>, whose exported wraphandle() function will clothe anything that's not a blessed object in an IO::Handle-like wrapper... so you can just use OO syntax and stop worrying about whether your function's caller handed you a string, a globref, or a FileHandle. =head1 AUTHOR Eryq (F<eryq@zeegee.com>).
