This means that each +variable tracks how many things reference it, and when the variable is no +longer referenced it will automatically free itself. In theory Perl code +should not have to care about this, and in a future version Perl might +change to some other strategy, although in practice this is unlikely. +.Sp +This function allows one to violate the abstraction of variables and get +or set the refcount of a variable, and in generally is really only useful +in code that is testing refcount behavior. +.Sp +*NOTE* You are strongly discouraged from using this function in non-test +code and especially discouraged from using the set form of this function. +The results of doing so may result in segmentation faults or other undefined +behavior. +.ie n .IP "SvREADONLY(\s-1THING,\s0 [, $value])" 4 +.el .IP "SvREADONLY(\s-1THING,\s0 [, \f(CW$value\fR])" 4 +.IX Item "SvREADONLY(THING, [, $value])" +Set or get whether a variable is readonly or not. Exactly what the +readonly flag means depend on the type of the variable affected and the +version of perl used. +.Sp +You are strongly discouraged from using this function directly. It is used +by various core modules, like \f(CW\*(C`Hash::Util\*(C'\fR, and the \f(CW\*(C`constant\*(C'\fR pragma +to implement higher-level behavior which should be used instead. +.Sp +See the core implementation for the exact meaning of the readonly flag for +each internal variable type. +.IP "hv_clear_placeholders(%hash)" 4 +.IX Item "hv_clear_placeholders(%hash)" +Clear any placeholders from a locked hash.
