version 0.10
use Hash::Util::FieldHash::Compat;
# pretend you are using L<Hash::Util::FieldHash> # under older perls it'll be Tie::RefHash::Weak instead (slower, but same behavior)
Under older perls this module provides a drop-in compatible API to the Hash::Util::FieldHash manpage using the perltie manpage. When the Hash::Util::FieldHash manpage is available it will use that instead.
This way code requiring field hashes can benefit from fast, robust field hashes on Perl 5.10 and newer, but still run on older perls that don't ship with that module.
See the Hash::Util::FieldHash manpage for all the details of the API.
the Hash::Util::FieldHash manpage, the Tie::RefHash manpage, the Tie::RefHash::Weak manpage.
