PDL::IO::Storable - helper functions to make PDL usable with Storable
use Storable;
use PDL::IO::Storable;
$hash = {
'foo' => 42,
'bar' => zeroes(23,45),
};
store $hash, 'perlhash.dat';
Storable implements object persistence for Perl data structures
that can (in principle) contain arbitrary Perl objects. Complicated
objects must supply their own methods to be serialized and thawed.
This module implements the relevant methods to be able to store
and retrieve piddles via Storable.
store a piddle using Storable
$a = random 12,10;
$a->store('myfile');
freeze a piddle using Storable
$a = random 12,10; $frozen = $a->freeze;
The packed piddles are not stored in a network transparent
way. As a result expect problems when moving Storable data
containing piddles across computers.
This could be fixed by amending the methods pdlpack and
pdlunpack appropriately. If you want this functionality
feel free to submit patches.
If you want to move piddle data across platforms I recommend PDL::NetCDF as an excellent (and IMHO superior) workaround.
