NAME

Tie::Anon - tie anonymous array, hash, etc. and return it

SYNOPSIS

use Tie::Anon qw(tiea);
use Tie::File;

for my $line (@{tiea('Tie::File', "hoge.dat")}) {
    print $line;
}

DESCRIPTION

When I feel extremely lazy, I don't want to write

my $tied_arrayref = do {
    tie my @a, "Tie::File", "hoge.dat";
    \@a;
};

With Tie::Anon, you can do the same by

my $tied_arrayref = tiea("Tie::File", "hoge.dat");

EXPORTABLE FUNCTIONS

None of these functions are exported by default. You must import them explicitly.

$tied_arrayref = tiea($class, @args)

Create an anonymous array-ref, tie that array to the $class with @args, and return it.

If tie() fails, it returns undef.

$tied_hashref = tieh($class, @args)

Create an anonymous hash-ref, tie that hash to the $class with @args, and return it.

If tie() fails, it returns undef.

$tied_scalarref = ties($class, @args)

Create an anonymous scalar-ref, tie that scalar to the $class with @args, and return it.

If tie() fails, it returns undef.
