( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Most of the places where I run Perl (Unix boxes for $$$ companies and govt institutions) don't run any databases and never will. I would guess that is the normal situation rather than the exception.

Really? No databases, whatsoever. Not even some xSV files?

I would hardly say that your example is a normal situation. Even if it is, I doubt it will stay that way. Certainly there is a strong move twards using RDBMS systems in web programming, where Perl has a strong following. Maybe the relational model isn't perfect for all problems, but some kind of DBMS is a strong tool to have.

I wanted to explore how Perl's closures can be manipulated, and ended up creating an object system by accident.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
