i've been working on porting the functionality of PHP's serialize() and unserialize() functions that will turn an array/hash into a simple string. so far, i've got serialize() working in perl... i attached the files, but you can also get them at: http://furt.com/code/serialize/ if anyone feels like helping me out, throw some data at it, serialize some stuff with perl, then try to unserialize it in PHP... see if you get the same values... i've been testing for a little while now, and it seems to be working fine. i plan to use this to store data in a mysql database so that both perl and PHP can understand the same serialized structures. it'll only serialize data... not references or objects or anything of that sort, so dont even try, or it'll give you funky results. :) PS: also, the code is a rough outline, so be kind :)
README rename "serialize.pl.txt" to "serialize.pl" rename "serialize.php.txt" to "serialize.php" to serialize data: run 'serialize.pl' to unserizlize: copy the output of 'serialize.pl' into 'serialize.php' and run 'serialize.php' code is free to use as long as you give me credit.
