Managing DBM Files
Manipulating DBM files
- The dbmopen() function "binds" an associative array
variable to a DBM file
dbmopen %aliases, "/etc/aliases", 0666;
- Make assignments or references to the associative array as usual
$aliases{'a'} = "Ape";
$aliases{"age"} = 42;
- The dbmclose() function "unbinds" an associative array
variable from the DBM file
