Package: wnpp Owner: Ryan Niebur <ryanryan52@gmail.com> Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-CC: debian-devel@lists.debian.org * Package name : libdata-alias-perl Version : 1.07 Upstream Author : Idea by Tony Bowden and Paul Johnson, code by Michael G Schwern <schwern@pobox.com>, wardrobe by Calvin Klein. * URL : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Data-Alias/ * License : Artistic | GPL-1+ Programming Lang: Perl Description : Comprehensive set of aliasing operations Aliasing is the phenomenon where two different expressions actually refer to the same thing. Modifying one will modify the other, and if you take a reference to both, the two values are the same. . Data::Alias is a module that allows you to apply "aliasing semantics" to a section of code, causing aliases to be made whereever Perl would normally make copies instead. You can use this to improve efficiency and readability, when compared to using references. -- _________________________ Ryan Niebur ryanryan52@gmail.com
