Re: Round Robin DBM?

If there was a module, I probably wouldn't want to use it. The task at hand can be coded with a few lines of perl, and a module that covers all or most possible uses of a ring buffer would just be overkill.

All you need is an array of defined length - then handle it with push and shift. If entries are added arbitrarily, use splice.

If you want to tie that array to a database - use tie. See perltie and Tie::Array.

--shmem

_($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                              /\_¯/(q    /
----------------------------  \__(m.====·.(_("always off the crowd"))."·
");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}
