=head1 NAME
IPC::SharedMem - SysV Shared Memory IPC object class
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use IPC::SysV qw(IPC_PRIVATE S_IRUSR S_IWUSR);
use IPC::SharedMem;
$shm = IPC::SharedMem->new(IPC_PRIVATE, 8, S_IRWXU);
$shm->write(pack("S", 4711), 2, 2);
$data = $shm->read(0, 2);
$ds = $shm->stat;
$shm->remove;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
A class providing an object based interface to SysV IPC shared memory.
=head1 METHODS
=over 4
=item new ( KEY , SIZE , FLAGS )
Creates a new shared memory segment associated with C<KEY>. A new
segment is created if
=over 4
=item *
C<KEY> is equal to C<IPC_PRIVATE>
=item *
C<KEY> does not already have a shared memory segment associated
with it, and C<I<FLAGS> & IPC_CREAT> is true.
=back
On creation of a new shared memory segment C<FLAGS> is used to
set the permissions. Be careful not to set any flags that the
Sys V IPC implementation does not allow: in some systems setting
execute bits makes the operations fail.
=item id
Returns the shared memory identifier.
=item read ( POS, SIZE )
Read C<SIZE> bytes from the shared memory segment at C<POS>. Returns
the string read, or C<undef> if there was an error. The return value
becomes tainted. See L<shmread>.
=item write ( STRING, POS, SIZE )
Write C<SIZE> bytes to the shared memory segment at C<POS>. Returns
true if successful, or false if there is an error. See L<shmwrite>.
=item remove
Remove the shared memory segment from the system or mark it as
removed as long as any processes are still attached to it.
=item is_removed
Returns true if the shared memory segment has been removed or
marked for removal.
=item stat
Returns an object of type C<IPC::SharedMem::stat> which is a sub-class
of C<Class::Struct>. It provides the following fields. For a description
of these fields see you system documentation.
uid
gid
cuid
cgid
mode
segsz
lpid
cpid
nattach
atime
dtime
ctime
=item attach ( [FLAG] )
Permanently attach to the shared memory segment. When a C<IPC::SharedMem>
object is attached, it will use L<memread> and L<memwrite> instead of
L<shmread> and L<shmwrite> for accessing the shared memory segment.
Returns true if successful, or false on error. See L<shmat>.
=item detach
Detach from the shared memory segment that previously has been attached
to. Returns true if successful, or false on error. See L<shmdt>.
=item addr
Returns the address of the shared memory that has been attached to in a
format suitable for use with C<pack('P')>. Returns C<undef> if the shared
memory has not been attached.
