+=head1 OVERVIEW
+
+The C<B> module contains a set of utility functions for querying the
+current state of the Perl interpreter; typically these functions
+return objects from the B::SV and B::OP classes, or their derived
+classes. These classes in turn define methods for querying the
+resulting objects about their own internal state.
+
+=head1 Utility Functions
+
+The C<B> module exports a variety of functions: some are simple
+utility functions, others provide a Perl program with a way to
+get an initial "handle" on an internal object.
+
+=head2 Functions Returning C<B::SV>, C<B::AV>, C<B::HV>, and C<B::CV> objects
+
+For descriptions of the class hierachy of these objects and the
+methods that can be called on them, see below, L<"OVERVIEW OF
+CLASSES"> and L<"SV-RELATED CLASSES">.
+
+=over 4
+
+=item sv_undef
+
+Returns the SV object corresponding to the C variable C<sv_undef>.
+
+=item sv_yes
+
+Returns the SV object corresponding to the C variable C<sv_yes>.
+
+=item sv_no
+
+Returns the SV object corresponding to the C variable C<sv_no>.
+
+=item svref_2object(SVREF)
+
+Takes a reference to any Perl value, and turns the referred-to value
+into an object in the appropriate B::OP-derived or B::SV-derived
+class. Apart from functions such as C<main_root>, this is the primary
+way to get an initial "handle" on an internal perl data structure
+which can then be followed with the other access methods.
+
+=item amagic_generation
+
+Returns the SV object corresponding to the C variable C<amagic_generation>.
+
+=item init_av
+
+Returns the AV object (i.e. in class B::AV) representing INIT blocks.
+
+=item check_av
+
+Returns the AV object (i.e. in class B::AV) representing CHECK blocks.
+
+=item begin_av
+
+Returns the AV object (i.e. in class B::AV) representing BEGIN blocks.
+
+=item end_av
+
+Returns the AV object (i.e. in class B::AV) representing END blocks.
+
+=item comppadlist
+
+Returns the AV object (i.e. in class B::AV) of the global comppadlist.
+
+=item regex_padav
+
+Only when perl was compiled with ithreads.
+

+
+Return the (faked) CV corresponding to the main part of the Perl

+
+=head2 Functions for Examining the Symbol Table
+
+=over 4
+
+=item walksymtable(SYMREF, METHOD, RECURSE, PREFIX)
+
+Walk the symbol table starting at SYMREF and call METHOD on each
+symbol (a B::GV object) visited. When the walk reaches package
+symbols (such as "Foo::") it invokes RECURSE, passing in the symbol
+name, and only recurses into the package if that sub returns true.
+
+PREFIX is the name of the SYMREF you're walking.
+
+For example:
+
+ # Walk CGI's symbol table calling print_subs on each symbol.
+ # Recurse only into CGI::Util::
+ walksymtable(\%CGI::, 'print_subs', sub { $_[0] eq 'CGI::Util::' },
+ 'CGI::');
+
+print_subs() is a B::GV method you have declared. Also see L<"B::GV
+Methods">, below.

+=head2 Functions Returning C<B::OP> objects or for walking op trees
+
+For descriptions of the class hierachy of these objects and the
+methods that can be called on them, see below, L<"OVERVIEW OF

+
+=over 4
+
+=item main_root
+
+Returns the root op (i.e. an object in the appropriate B::OP-derived
+class) of the main part of the Perl program.
+
+=item main_start
+
+Returns the starting op of the main part of the Perl program.
+
+=item walkoptree(OP, METHOD)
+
+Does a tree-walk of the syntax tree based at OP and calls METHOD on
+each op it visits. Each node is visited before its children. If
+C<walkoptree_debug> (see below) has been called to turn debugging on then
+the method C<walkoptree_debug> is called on each op before METHOD is
+called.
+
+=item walkoptree_debug(DEBUG)
+
+Returns the current debugging flag for C<walkoptree>. If the optional
+DEBUG argument is non-zero, it sets the debugging flag to that. See
+the description of C<walkoptree> above for what the debugging flag
+does.
+
+=back
+
+=head2 Miscellaneous Utility Functions
+
+=over 4
+
+=item ppname(OPNUM)
+
+Return the PP function name (e.g. "pp_add") of op number OPNUM.
+
+=item hash(STR)
+
+Returns a string in the form "0x..." representing the value of the
+internal hash function used by perl on string STR.
+
+=item cast_I32(I)
+
+Casts I to the internal I32 type used by that perl.
+
+=item minus_c
+
+Does the equivalent of the C<-c> command-line option. Obviously, this
+is only useful in a BEGIN block or else the flag is set too late.
+
+=item cstring(STR)
+
+Returns a double-quote-surrounded escaped version of STR which can
+be used as a string in C source code.
+
+=item perlstring(STR)

+Returns a double-quote-surrounded escaped version of STR which can
+be used as a string in Perl source code.
+
+=item class(OBJ)

+Returns the class of an object without the part of the classname
+preceding the first C<"::">. This is used to turn C<"B::UNOP"> into
+C<"UNOP"> for example.

+per-thread threadsv variables.

=head1 OVERVIEW OF CLASSES
The C structures used by Perl's internals to hold SV and OP
class hierarchy and the C<B> module gives access to them via a true
object hierarchy. Structure fields which point to other objects
(whether types of SV or types of OP) are represented by the C<B>
-module as Perl objects of the appropriate class. The bulk of the C<B>
-module is the methods for accessing fields of these structures. Note
-that all access is read-only: you cannot modify the internals by
+module as Perl objects of the appropriate class.

B::AV, B::HV, B::CV, B::GV, B::FM, B::IO. These classes correspond in
the obvious way to the underlying C structures of similar names. The
-inheritance hierarchy mimics the underlying C "inheritance". Access
-methods correspond to the underlying C macros for field access,

+Access methods correspond to the underlying C macros for field access,
usually with the leading "class indication" prefix removed (Sv, Av,
Hv, ...). The leading prefix is only left in cases where its removal
would cause a clash in method name. For example, C<GvREFCNT> stays
as-is since its abbreviation would clash with the "superclass" method
C<REFCNT> (corresponding to the C function C<SvREFCNT>).
