=head1 NAME

Memoize::NDBM_File - glue to provide EXISTS for NDBM_File for Storable use

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This class provides L<EXISTS|perltie/C<EXISTS>> support for L<NDBM_File>.

L<In Perl 5.37.3|https://github.com/Perl/perl5/commit/c0a1a377c02ed789f5eff667f46a2314a05c5a4c>,
support for C<EXISTS> was added to L<NDBM_File> itself.
Code which requires such a perl should simply use L<NBDM_File> directly.
