SYNOPSIS

use Inline 'SLang';

# you can send hash references to S-Lang
print_in_slang( { a => 23, "b b" => "foo" } );

# and get them back from S-Lang
$href = get_from_slang();
print "The assoc array contains:n" .
join( "", map { "t$_ => $$href{$_}n"; } keys %$href );

__END__
__SLang__

define print_in_slang (assoc) {
message( "SLang thinks you sent it an assoc. array with:" );
foreach ( assoc ) using ( "keys", "values" ) {
variable k, v;
( k, v ) = ();
vmessage( " key %s = %S", k, v );
}
}
define get_from_slang() {
variable x = Assoc_Type [String_Type];
x["a key"] = "a value";
x["another key"] = "another value";
return x;
}
The output of this code - which can be found in the source-code distribution as examples/assoc.pl - is:
SLang thinks you sent it an assoc. array with:
