NAME

       KiokuDB::LiveObjects::Scope - Scope helper object

VERSION

       version 0.56

SYNOPSIS

           {
               my $scope = $dir->new_scope;

               ... do work on $dir ...
           }

DESCRIPTION

       Live object scopes exist in order to ensure objects don't die too soon if the only other
       references to them are weak.

       When scopes are destroyed the refcounts of the objects they refer to go down, and the
       parent scope is replaced in the live object set.

METHODS

       push
           Adds objects or entries, increasing their reference count.

       clear
           Clears the objects from the scope object.

       detach
           Marks this scope as no longer the "current" live object scope, if it is the current
           one.

           This allows keeping branching of scopes, which can be useful under long running
           applications.

       remove
           Effectively kills the scope by clearing it and removing it from the live object set.
