Re^3: Parse Log File As Written

"Changes to the array are reflected in the file immediately."

This is something I copied from CPAN's Tie::File. it IS the 3rd line of the description.

The CPAN doc gives other caveats of Tie::File

I've not used this module, but the way I understand it is that any changes you make to the array are reflected in the file immmediately. MJD posted "Lightweight Database Techniques" tutorial materials freed recently, and in that he gives some examples and discussion about Tie::File :-) Chris	[reply]

Yes, I saw it there. I didn't dispute that the docs say the array immediately updates the file. However, they do not say that the file immediately updates the array. Array -> file does not imply file -> array.	[reply]
