Digest::Elf version 1.42 ======================= Digest::Elf provides an XS based implementation of the ElfHash algorithm. What's that get ya? ElfHash generates reasonably unique 32 bit integer value from a string in a reasonably short period of time. The actual algorithm was culled from a Dr. Dobbs Journal article and they culled it, I think, from the source for the GNU c complier. If you know better, please let me know. INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install DEPENDENCIES This module requires a fully operational battle station, and a working install of the gnu c compiler.
