Tie::Hash::Regex ---------------- NAME Tie::Hash::Regex DESCRIPTION WHAT IS Tie::Hash::Regex? Tie::Hash::Regex is a Perl module which extends the functionality of Perl hashes so that they can match regular expression keys. HOW DO I INSTALL IT? Tie::Hash::Regex uses the standard Perl module architecture and can therefore be installed using the standard Perl method which, in brief, goes something like this: gzip -cd Tie-Hash-Regex-X.XX.tar.gz | tar xvf - cd Tie-Hash-Regex-X.XX perl Makefile.PL make make test make install Where X.XX is the version number of the module which you are installing. If this doesn't work for you then creating a directory called Tie/Hash somewhere in your Perl library path (@INC) and copying the Regex.pm file into this directory should also do the trick. WHERE IS THE DOCUMENTATION? All of the documentation is currently in POD format in the Regex.pm file. If you install the module using the standard method you should be able to read it by typing perldoc Tie::Hash::Regex at a comand prompt. LATEST VERSION The latest version of this module will always be available from CPAN. COPYRIGHT Copyright (c) 2001, Magnum Solutions Ltd. All Rights Reserved.
