Locale::Maketext::Lexicon::Tie - Use tied hashes as lexicons for Maketext

SYNOPSIS

Top

    package Hello::I18N;
    use base 'Locale::Maketext';
    use Locale::Maketext::Lexicon {
        en => [ Tie => [ DB_File => 'en.db' ] ],
    };

DESCRIPTION

Top

This module lets you easily tie the %Lexicon hash to a database or other data sources. It takes an array reference of arguments, and passes them directly to tie().

Entries will then be fetched whenever it is used; this module does not cache them.
