Your readItem() subroutine suggests the need for access to
values without much typing. If you also desire to assign
new values, why not use an alias? Like so:
*label= \$project{$activeProject}
{components}
{Software}
{subComponents}
{Database}
{label} ;
You read the value using print $lable;,
and assign a new value using '$label='Test-2'; .
This is a lot shorter than the OP which exhibited the
full train of variables, and was coded like this:
$project{$activeProject}
{components}
{Software}
{subComponents}
{Database}
{label}
= 'Test-2';

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
