NAME

       Dpkg::Control::HashCore::Tie - ties a Dpkg::Control::Hash object

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides a class that is used to tie a hash.  It implements hash-like functions by
       normalizing the name of fields received in keys (using Dpkg::Control::Fields::field_capitalize()).  It
       also stores the order in which fields have been added in order to be able to dump them in the same order.
       But the order information is stored in a parent object of type Dpkg::Control.

       Note: This is a private module, its API can change at any time.

FUNCTIONS

       Dpkg::Control::Hash->new($parent)
           Return a reference to a tied hash implementing storage of simple "field: value" mapping as used in
           many Debian-specific files.

CHANGES
