首先,不要重新发明轮子;使用Class::InsideOut。
它是永久性的。必须是,否则以下操作将失败:
my $x;
my $r = \$x;
... Do something with $x ...
say $$r;
标量在固定位置有一个“头”。如果 SV 需要升级(例如保存一个字符串),它是一个称为“主体”的第二个内存块,它将发生变化。字符串缓冲区是第三个内存块。
$ perl -MDevel::Peek -MScalar::Util=refaddr -E'
my $x=4;
my $r=\$x;
say sprintf "refaddr=0x%x", refaddr($r);
Dump($$r);
say "";
say "Upgrade SV:";
$x='abc';
say sprintf "refaddr=0x%x", refaddr($r);
Dump($$r);
say "";
say "Increase PV size:";
$x="x"x20;
say sprintf "refaddr=0x%x", refaddr($r);
Dump($$r);
