The module provides the IO::File interface for in-core strings. An
|
|
|
|
|
object can be attached to a string, and will make it possible to
|
|
|
|
|
use the normal file operations for reading or writing data, as well
|
|
|
|
|
as seeking to various locations of the string. The main reason you
|
|
|
|
|
might want to do this is if you have some other library module
|
|
|
|
|
that only provide an interface to file handles, and you want to
|
|
|
|
|
keep all the stuff in memory.
