method
[]=
[]=(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_hierarchy] = { "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.
