# Note 12/4/2005: I can build these two hashes up here, but I don't know what # to do with them yet. They cannot currently be passed to # $self->_merge_engine(), and the Data::Presenter constructor is going to # rebuild them after $self->_init() has run.

# But they may be useful in solving the # problem of getting the right null value in Intersect or Union. # Suppose the fully merged object's hash is $data and a given record is $key. # $data{$key} = [ $alpha, $beta, ..., $omega ]; # The sort type for the ith element index in that array is: # $sort_type = $newbasefp{$newbasefields[$i]}[2];
