libtie-dbi-perl - 1.08-1 main

Tie::DBI is a Perl module for using a database as a backing store for Perl's
hash data structure. One field of the table becomes the hash key, and another
becomes the value. Once tied, all standard hash operations work, including
iteration over keys and values.
.
Using the Storable module, you may store complex Perl data structures (even
objects) in the database and later retrieve them. When used in conjunction
with a network-accessible database, this provides a simple way to transmit
data structures between Perl programs on different machines.
