emulate IO::File interface for in-core strings

Back to search · Project homepage

Description

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.
