-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-Given a list of scalars or reference variables, writes out their contents in
-perl syntax. The references can also be objects. The contents of each
-variable is output in a single Perl statement. Handles self-referential
-structures correctly.
-
-The return value can be C<eval>ed to get back an identical copy of the
-original reference structure.
-
-Any references that are the same as one of those passed in will be named
-C<$VAR>I<n> (where I<n> is a numeric suffix), and other duplicate references
-to substructures within C<$VAR>I<n> will be appropriately labeled using arrow
-notation. You can specify names for individual values to be dumped if you
-use the C<Dump()> method, or you can change the default C<$VAR> prefix to
-something else. See C<$Data::Dumper::Varname> and C<$Data::Dumper::Terse>
-below.
-
-The default output of self-referential structures can be C<eval>ed, but the
-nested references to C<$VAR>I<n> will be undefined, since a recursive
-structure cannot be constructed using one Perl statement. You should set the
-C<Purity> flag to 1 to get additional statements that will correctly fill in
-these references. Moreover, if C<eval>ed when strictures are in effect,
-you need to ensure that any variables it accesses are previously declared.
-
-In the extended usage form, the references to be dumped can be given
-user-specified names. If a name begins with a C<*>, the output will
-describe the dereferenced type of the supplied reference for hashes and
-arrays, and coderefs. Output of names will be avoided where possible if
-the C<Terse> flag is set.
-
-In many cases, methods that are used to set the internal state of the
-object will return the object itself, so method calls can be conveniently
-chained together.
-
-Several styles of output are possible, all controlled by setting
-the C<Indent> flag. See L<Configuration Variables or Methods> below
-for details.

-=head2 Methods
-
-=over 4
-
-=item I<PACKAGE>->new(I<ARRAYREF [>, I<ARRAYREF]>)
-
-Returns a newly created C<Data::Dumper> object. The first argument is an
-anonymous array of values to be dumped. The optional second argument is an
-anonymous array of names for the values. The names need not have a leading
-C<$> sign, and must be comprised of alphanumeric characters. You can begin
-a name with a C<*> to specify that the dereferenced type must be dumped
-instead of the reference itself, for ARRAY and HASH references.
-
-The prefix specified by C<$Data::Dumper::Varname> will be used with a
-numeric suffix if the name for a value is undefined.
-
-Data::Dumper will catalog all references encountered while dumping the
-values. Cross-references (in the form of names of substructures in perl
-syntax) will be inserted at all possible points, preserving any structural
-interdependencies in the original set of values. Structure traversal is
-depth-first, and proceeds in order from the first supplied value to
-the last.
-
-=item I<$OBJ>->Dump I<or> I<PACKAGE>->Dump(I<ARRAYREF [>, I<ARRAYREF]>)
-
-Returns the stringified form of the values stored in the object (preserving
-the order in which they were supplied to C<new>), subject to the
-configuration options below. In a list context, it returns a list
-of strings corresponding to the supplied values.
-
-The second form, for convenience, simply calls the C<new> method on its
-arguments before dumping the object immediately.
-
-=item I<$OBJ>->Seen(I<[HASHREF]>)
-
-Queries or adds to the internal table of already encountered references.
-You must use C<Reset> to explicitly clear the table if needed. Such
-references are not dumped; instead, their names are inserted wherever they
-are encountered subsequently. This is useful especially for properly
-dumping subroutine references.
-
-Expects an anonymous hash of name => value pairs. Same rules apply for names
-as in C<new>. If no argument is supplied, will return the "seen" list of
-name => value pairs, in a list context. Otherwise, returns the object
-itself.
-
-=item I<$OBJ>->Values(I<[ARRAYREF]>)
-
-Queries or replaces the internal array of values that will be dumped.
-When called without arguments, returns the values. Otherwise, returns the
-object itself.
-
-=item I<$OBJ>->Names(I<[ARRAYREF]>)
-
-Queries or replaces the internal array of user supplied names for the values
-that will be dumped. When called without arguments, returns the names.
-Otherwise, returns the object itself.
-
-=item I<$OBJ>->Reset
-
-Clears the internal table of "seen" references and returns the object
-itself.

-=head2 Functions
-
-=over 4
-
-=item Dumper(I<LIST>)
-
-Returns the stringified form of the values in the list, subject to the
-configuration options below. The values will be named C<$VAR>I<n> in the
-output, where I<n> is a numeric suffix. Will return a list of strings
-in a list context.
-
-=back
-
-=head2 Configuration Variables or Methods
-
-Several configuration variables can be used to control the kind of output
-generated when using the procedural interface. These variables are usually
-C<local>ized in a block so that other parts of the code are not affected by
-the change.
-
-These variables determine the default state of the object created by calling
-the C<new> method, but cannot be used to alter the state of the object
-thereafter. The equivalent method names should be used instead to query
-or set the internal state of the object.
-
-The method forms return the object itself when called with arguments,
-so that they can be chained together nicely.
-

-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Indent I<or> I<$OBJ>->Indent(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Controls the style of indentation. It can be set to 0, 1, 2 or 3. Style 0
-spews output without any newlines, indentation, or spaces between list
-items. It is the most compact format possible that can still be called
-valid perl. Style 1 outputs a readable form with newlines but no fancy
-indentation (each level in the structure is simply indented by a fixed
-amount of whitespace). Style 2 (the default) outputs a very readable form
-which takes into account the length of hash keys (so the hash value lines
-up). Style 3 is like style 2, but also annotates the elements of arrays
-with their index (but the comment is on its own line, so array output
-consumes twice the number of lines). Style 2 is the default.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Purity I<or> I<$OBJ>->Purity(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Controls the degree to which the output can be C<eval>ed to recreate the
-supplied reference structures. Setting it to 1 will output additional perl
-statements that will correctly recreate nested references. The default is
-0.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Pad I<or> I<$OBJ>->Pad(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Specifies the string that will be prefixed to every line of the output.
-Empty string by default.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Varname I<or> I<$OBJ>->Varname(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Contains the prefix to use for tagging variable names in the output. The
-default is "VAR".
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Useqq I<or> I<$OBJ>->Useqq(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-When set, enables the use of double quotes for representing string values.
-Whitespace other than space will be represented as C<[\n\t\r]>, "unsafe"
-characters will be backslashed, and unprintable characters will be output as
-quoted octal integers. Since setting this variable imposes a performance
-penalty, the default is 0. C<Dump()> will run slower if this flag is set,
-since the fast XSUB implementation doesn't support it yet.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Terse I<or> I<$OBJ>->Terse(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-When set, Data::Dumper will emit single, non-self-referential values as
-atoms/terms rather than statements. This means that the C<$VAR>I<n> names
-will be avoided where possible, but be advised that such output may not
-always be parseable by C<eval>.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Freezer I<or> $I<OBJ>->Freezer(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Can be set to a method name, or to an empty string to disable the feature.
-Data::Dumper will invoke that method via the object before attempting to
-stringify it. This method can alter the contents of the object (if, for
-instance, it contains data allocated from C), and even rebless it in a
-different package. The client is responsible for making sure the specified
-method can be called via the object, and that the object ends up containing
-only perl data types after the method has been called. Defaults to an empty
-string.
-
-If an object does not support the method specified (determined using
-UNIVERSAL::can()) then the call will be skipped. If the method dies a
-warning will be generated.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Toaster I<or> $I<OBJ>->Toaster(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Can be set to a method name, or to an empty string to disable the feature.
-Data::Dumper will emit a method call for any objects that are to be dumped
-using the syntax C<bless(DATA, CLASS)-E<gt>METHOD()>. Note that this means that
-the method specified will have to perform any modifications required on the
-object (like creating new state within it, and/or reblessing it in a
-different package) and then return it. The client is responsible for making
-sure the method can be called via the object, and that it returns a valid
-object. Defaults to an empty string.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Deepcopy I<or> $I<OBJ>->Deepcopy(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Can be set to a boolean value to enable deep copies of structures.
-Cross-referencing will then only be done when absolutely essential
-(i.e., to break reference cycles). Default is 0.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Quotekeys I<or> $I<OBJ>->Quotekeys(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Can be set to a boolean value to control whether hash keys are quoted.
-A false value will avoid quoting hash keys when it looks like a simple
-string. Default is 1, which will always enclose hash keys in quotes.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Bless I<or> $I<OBJ>->Bless(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Can be set to a string that specifies an alternative to the C<bless>
-builtin operator used to create objects. A function with the specified
-name should exist, and should accept the same arguments as the builtin.
-Default is C<bless>.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Pair I<or> $I<OBJ>->Pair(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Can be set to a string that specifies the separator between hash keys
-and values. To dump nested hash, array and scalar values to JavaScript,
-use: C<$Data::Dumper::Pair = ' : ';>. Implementing C<bless> in JavaScript
-is left as an exercise for the reader.
-A function with the specified name exists, and accepts the same arguments
-as the builtin.
-
-Default is: C< =E<gt> >.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Maxdepth I<or> $I<OBJ>->Maxdepth(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Can be set to a positive integer that specifies the depth beyond which
-which we don't venture into a structure. Has no effect when
-C<Data::Dumper::Purity> is set. (Useful in debugger when we often don't
-want to see more than enough). Default is 0, which means there is
-no maximum depth.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Useperl I<or> $I<OBJ>->Useperl(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Can be set to a boolean value which controls whether the pure Perl
-implementation of C<Data::Dumper> is used. The C<Data::Dumper> module is
-a dual implementation, with almost all functionality written in both
-pure Perl and also in XS ('C'). Since the XS version is much faster, it
-will always be used if possible. This option lets you override the
-default behavior, usually for testing purposes only. Default is 0, which
-means the XS implementation will be used if possible.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Sortkeys I<or> $I<OBJ>->Sortkeys(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Can be set to a boolean value to control whether hash keys are dumped in
-sorted order. A true value will cause the keys of all hashes to be
-dumped in Perl's default sort order. Can also be set to a subroutine
-reference which will be called for each hash that is dumped. In this
-case C<Data::Dumper> will call the subroutine once for each hash,
-passing it the reference of the hash. The purpose of the subroutine is
-to return a reference to an array of the keys that will be dumped, in
-the order that they should be dumped. Using this feature, you can
-control both the order of the keys, and which keys are actually used. In
-other words, this subroutine acts as a filter by which you can exclude
-certain keys from being dumped. Default is 0, which means that hash keys
-are not sorted.
-
-=item *
-
-$Data::Dumper::Deparse I<or> $I<OBJ>->Deparse(I<[NEWVAL]>)
-
-Can be set to a boolean value to control whether code references are
-turned into perl source code. If set to a true value, C<B::Deparse>
-will be used to get the source of the code reference. Using this option
-will force using the Perl implementation of the dumper, since the fast
-XSUB implementation doesn't support it.
-
-Caution : use this option only if you know that your coderefs will be
-properly reconstructed by C<B::Deparse>.

-=head1 BUGS
-
-Due to limitations of Perl subroutine call semantics, you cannot pass an
-array or hash. Prepend it with a C<\> to pass its reference instead. This
-will be remedied in time, now that Perl has subroutine prototypes.
-For now, you need to use the extended usage form, and prepend the
-name with a C<*> to output it as a hash or array.
-
-C<Data::Dumper> cheats with CODE references. If a code reference is
-encountered in the structure being processed (and if you haven't set
-the C<Deparse> flag), an anonymous subroutine that
-contains the string '"DUMMY"' will be inserted in its place, and a warning
-will be printed if C<Purity> is set. You can C<eval> the result, but bear
-in mind that the anonymous sub that gets created is just a placeholder.
-Someday, perl will have a switch to cache-on-demand the string
-representation of a compiled piece of code, I hope. If you have prior
-knowledge of all the code refs that your data structures are likely
-to have, you can use the C<Seen> method to pre-seed the internal reference
-table and make the dumped output point to them, instead. See L</EXAMPLES>
-above.
-
-The C<Useqq> and C<Deparse> flags makes Dump() run slower, since the
-XSUB implementation does not support them.
-
-SCALAR objects have the weirdest looking C<bless> workaround.
-
-Pure Perl version of C<Data::Dumper> escapes UTF-8 strings correctly
-only in Perl 5.8.0 and later.
-
-=head2 NOTE
-
-Starting from Perl 5.8.1 different runs of Perl will have different
-ordering of hash keys. The change was done for greater security,
-see L<perlsec/"Algorithmic Complexity Attacks">. This means that
-different runs of Perl will have different Data::Dumper outputs if
-the data contains hashes. If you need to have identical Data::Dumper
-outputs from different runs of Perl, use the environment variable
-PERL_HASH_SEED, see L<perlrun/PERL_HASH_SEED>. Using this restores
-the old (platform-specific) ordering: an even prettier solution might
-be to use the C<Sortkeys> filter of Data::Dumper.
