8.171. PerlIO::Scalar
Supports
in-memory I/O. It exists so it can use XSLoader to load C code that
supports treating a scalar as an
"in-memory" file. PerlIO::Scalar
allows all normal file operations to be performed on the handle.
Returns undef.
For example:#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use PerlIO::Scalar;
open($fh, "<...", \$some_scalar);
This module is part of the core Perl distribution starting with Perl
5.8.
