Tie::SubstrHash
Provides a hash table-like interface to a fixed-sized array that has a constant key size and record size:
require Tie::SubstrHash; tie %myhash, "Tie::SubstrHash",key_len
,value_len
,table_size
;
To tie a new hash to this package, specify the following:
key_len
Length of each key
value_len
Length of each value
table_size
Size of the table given as the number of key/value pairs
An attempt to store a key/value pair in which either the key or
the value is the wrong length, or in which the resulting table would
be greater than table_size
, results in a
fatal error.
