Re: Re: Re: Re: Why Perl does not support database access through core modules?

I think no. Scalar::Util::weaken creates a weak reference that will be undefed if what it points to is freed. newrv_noinc won't do that I belive.

I think your right, it looks like it sets a flag on the sv. I've only done a little bit of work with XS, but I thought that if the rv was no longer valid, you would pick up on that with SvROK. Maybe there was concern about weakening the same reference multiple times? update To who every downvoted this, you're a d1ck. -Lee "To be civilized is to deny one's nature."	[reply]
