All,
When I dump a hash structure using 'x' on the perl debugger it looks like
this:-
0 HASH(0x8658db4)
'_load' => HASH(0x8ad6b00)
'PROCESSING' => 1
'STRUC' => HASH(0x8b56f94)
-> REUSED_ADDRESS
I am curious as to what REUSED_ADDRESS means? I am concerned that this is a
circular reference.
Can anybody she some light on thsi subject?
I never encountered it, but there is an option to the debug module that
may prove useful:
B<O> [I<opt>B<=>I<val>] [I<opt>=B<\">I<val>B<\">] ...
Set options. Use quotes in spaces in value.
...
I<DumpReused> dump contents of \"reused\" addresses;
'''
It could mean that two branches of the hash point to the same data -
just a guess.
