The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Tie::Hash::FixedKeys
DSLIP: Rdprp
description: Hashes with a fixed set of keys
userid: DAVECROSS (Dave Cross)
chapterid: 6 (Data_Type_Utilities)
communities:
london.pm mailing list, perlmonks, article on perl.com
similar:
rationale:
This module is a very simple way to create hashes with a fixed set
of keys. It does this by assigning undef to all the values when the
hash is created and then foilng all attempts to add or remove keys
from the hash.
It is a subclass of Tie::StdHash.
The name seems to follow the same rationale as many other Tied
modules (e.g. Tie::Hash::Regex, Tie::Scalar::Timeout).
The module was originally written to illustrate ideas in a perl.com
article, but since I've uploaded it to CPAN people seem to find it
useful. I therefore think it would be useful to have it in the
module list.
Thanks,
Dave...
