Description : stringified perl data structures, suitable for both printing and eval
Given a list of scalars or reference variables, writes out their contents in
perl syntax. The references can also be objects. The contents of each
variable is output in a single Perl statement. Handles self-referential
structures correctly.
.
The return value can be evaled to get back an identical copy of the
original reference structure.
.
Any references that are the same as one of those passed in will be named
$VARn (where n is a numeric suffix), and other duplicate references
to substructures within $VARn will be appropriately labeled using arrow
notation. You can specify names for individual values to be dumped if you
use the Dump() method, or you can change the default $VAR prefix to
something else. See $Data::Dumper::Varname and $Data::Dumper::Terse
below.
.
This package is needed to build/use taskjuggler (#239047)
