This module provides a single function called dump() that takes a list of
|
||
|
|
values as its argument and produces a string as its result. The string contains
|
||
|
|
Perl code that, when evaled, produces a deep copy of the original arguments.
|
||
|
|
The string is formatted for easy reading.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If dump() is called in a void context, then the dump is printed on STDERR
|
||
|
|
instead of being returned.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you don't like importing a function that overrides Perl's not-so-useful
|
||
|
|
builtin, then you can also import the same function as pp(), mnemonic for
|
||
|
|
"pretty-print".
