VERSION

This document describes UNIVERSAL::to_yaml version 0.10

SYNOPSIS

    use UNIVERSAL::to_yaml;
    my $foo = Foo->new();
    print $foo->to_yaml();

DESCRIPTION

UNIVERSAL::to_yaml tries to copy Ruby's to_yaml method after people require 'yaml' module. It could works on objects, but it works on all objects.

INTERFACE

to_yaml()

This does a YAML::Dump() to current object. Since it's put in UNIVERSAL namespace, it will work on any module. You just have to use UNIVERSAL::to_yaml somewhere in your code.

DEPENDENCIES

You must have YAML or YAML::Syck installed. UNIVERSAL::to_yaml prefers later over former if you have them both.
