original data.
There are several well-known serialization method, such as L<Data::Dumper>,
L<JSON>, L<YAML>, L<PHP::Serialization>, L<Data::DumpXML>, etc. Each of them
has different benefits and
its. You should read their documents
for more information.
My favorite one is L<JSON>. It will try to use L<JSON::XS> when availible.
This one is both efficient and simple. Though you can only st
lessed object,
tied data, nor references that refer to the same variable or cyclic references (L<JSON>
will extract them independently and completely).
