NAME

       File::ExtAttr::Tie - Tie interface to extended attributes of files

SYNOPSIS

         use File::ExtAttr::Tie;
         use Data::Dumper;

         tie %a,
           "File::ExtAttr::Tie", "/Applications (Mac  OS 9)/Sherlock 2",
           { namespace => 'user' };
         print Dumper \%a;

       produces:

         $VAR1 = {
                  'com.apple.FinderInfo' => 'APPLfndf!?',
                  'com.apple.ResourceFork' => '?p?p5I'
                 };

DESCRIPTION

       File::ExtAttr::Tie provides access to extended attributes of a file through a tied hash.
       Creating a new key creates a new extended attribute associated with the file. Modifying
       the value or removing a key likewise modifies/removes the extended attribute.

       Internally this module uses the File::ExtAttr module. So it has the same restrictions as
       that module in terms of OS support.

METHODS

       tie "File::ExtAttr::Tie", $filename, [\%flags]
           The flags are the same optional flags as in File::ExtAttr.  Any flags given here will
           be passed to all operations on the tied hash.  Only the "namespace" flag makes sense.
           The hash will be tied to the default namespace, if no flags are given.
