NAME¶
TM::Index::Reified - Topic Maps, Indexing support (reification axis)
SYNOPSIS¶
# somehow get a map (any subclass of TM will do)
my $tm = ...
# one option: create an eager index (immediate population)
use TM::Index::Reified;
my $idx = new TM::Index::Reified ($tm, closed => 1);
# for most operations which involve is_reified to be called
# should be much faster
DESCRIPTION¶
This index can be attached to a map if the method "is_reified" is
about to be called very often. Most likely you will want to have the index to
be closed, i.e. populated.
The package inherits most of its functionality from TM::Index.
NOTE: As for all indices, modifications of the underlying map are not
reflected automatically.

Constructor¶
The constructor/destructor is inherited from TM::Index.
Methods¶
- attach, detach

information.
