[]=(name, value) public

Stores an individual Ruby object or a hierarchy of Ruby objects in the data store file under the root name. Assigning to a name already in the data store clobbers the old data.

Example:

 require "pstore"

 store = PStore.new("data_file.pstore")
 store.transaction do  # begin transaction
   # load some data into the store...
   store[:single_object] = "My data..."
   store[:obj_heirarchy] = { "Kev Jackson" => ["rational.rb", "pstore.rb"],
                             "James Gray"  => ["erb.rb", "pstore.rb"] }
 end                   # commit changes to data store file

WARNING: This method is only valid in a PStore#transaction and it cannot be read-only. It will raise PStore::Error if called at any other time.
