| libdata-dump-perl | Pretty printing of data structures | Mehr ... |
Data::Dump 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". |
