NAME

       Hash::Util::FieldHash::Compat - Use Hash::Util::FieldHash or ties, depending on availability.

SYNOPSIS

	       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)

DESCRIPTION

       Under older perls this module provides a drop in compatible api to Hash::Util::FieldHash using perltie. When Hash::Util::FieldHash 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 Hash::Util::FieldHash for all the details of the API.

SEE ALSO

       Hash::Util::FieldHash, Tie::RefHash, Tie::RefHash::Weak.
