Storable::AMF3(3)

NAME
Storable::AMF3 - serializing/deserializing AMF3 data

SYNOPSIS
  use Storable::AMF3 qw(freeze thaw);

  $amf3 = freeze($perl_object);
  $perl_object = thaw($amf3);

  # Store/retrieve to disk amf3 data

  store $perl_object, 'file';
  $restored_perl_object = retrieve 'file';

  use Storable::AMF3 qw(nstore freeze thaw dclone);

  # Advisory locking
  use Storable::AMF3 qw(lock_store lock_nstore lock_retrieve)
  lock_store \%table, 'file';
  lock_nstore \%table, 'file';
  $hashref = lock_retrieve('file');

  # Deparse one object
  use Storable::AMF0 qw(deparse_amf);

  my( $obj, $length_of_packet ) = deparse_amf( my $bytea = freeze($a1) . freeze($a) ... );

  - or -
  $obj = deparse_amf( freeze($a1) . freeze($a) ... );

DESCRIPTION
This module is (de)serializer for Adobe's AMF3 (Action Message Format ver 3). This is only module and it recognize only AMF3 data. Almost all function implemented in C for speed. And some cases faster then Storable( for me always)

EXPORT
  None by default.

FUNCTIONS

freeze($obj) --- Serialize perl object($obj) to AMF3, and return AMF data
thaw($amf3) --- Deserialize AMF data to perl object, and return the perl object
store $obj, $file --- Store serialized AMF3 data to file
nstore $obj, $file --- Same as store
retrieve $obj, $file --- Retrieve serialized AMF3 data from file
lock_store $obj, $file --- Same as store but with Advisory locking
lock_nstore $obj, $file --- Same as lock_store
lock_retrieve $file --- Same as retrieve but with advisory locking
dclone $file --- Deep cloning data structure
ref_clear $obj --- cleaning  arrayref and hashref. (Usefull for destroing complex objects)
ref_lost_memory $obj --- test if object contain lost memory fragments inside. (Example do { my $a = []; @$a=$a; $a})
deparse_amf $bytea --- deparse from bytea one item Return one object and number of bytes readed if scalar context return object
parse_serializator_option / parse_option generate option scalar for freeze/thaw/deparse_amf See Storable::AMF0 for complete list of options
