NAME

Tie::MLDBM::Store::DB_File - Tie::MLDBM Storage Component Module

SYNOPSIS

 use Tie::MLDBM;

 tie %hash, 'Tie::MLDBM', {
     'Store'     =>  'DB_File'
 } ... or die $!;

DESCRIPTION

This module forms a storage component of the Tie::MLDBM framework, using the DB_File module to fulfill storage requirements.

Due to the structure of the Tie::MLDBM framework, there are few limits on the underlying storage component with all storage components simply existing as an inherited class of the storage module that they represent. For example, this module, Tie::MLDBM::Store::DB_File inherits from DB_File in a simple IS-A relationship.

Caveats of usage of this module for storage are the same as that for the DB_File module itself and are documented on DB_File.
