The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Object::Realize::Later
DSLIP: MdpOp
description: Delay construction of real data until used
userid: MARKOV (Mark Overmeer)
chapterid: 6 (Data_Type_Utilities)
communities:
As part of Mail::Box talk at YAPC::Europe 2001
similar:
rationale:
Autoloading of data (and functionality) is a lesser known cousin of
the usual autoloading of functionality.
Autoloading of data can be used to stub the realization of the
content of a real object until someone is really using the data.
The implementation, tests, and docs are ready. The strategy was
already in use to implement on-demand loading of messages in the
Mail::Box suite.
