Re: How will you use state declared variables in Perl6?by theorbtwo (Prior) |

I think I'll likely use state vars mostly the same way I used the equiv p5 code: {my %foo; sub get_cached {my $x=shift; return $foo{$x} if exists $foo{$x}; $gotten = get($x); $foo{$x}=$gotten; return $gotten}. It's really quite useful when you want to create a quick-and-dirty cache without pulling in lots of dependencies you could easily avoid. Of course, complicate to taste with an expiration strategy, which I generally do in conjunction to cache loading. Warning: Unless otherwise stated, code is untested. Do not use without understanding. Code is posted in the hopes it is useful, but without warranty. All copyrights are relinquished into the public domain unless otherwise stated. I am not an angel. I am capable of error, and err on a fairly regular basis. If I made a mistake, please let me know (such as by replying to this node).
