Different hashes part II

Hello Monks I just send a message not long ago (different hashes?), and I tried your suggestions. I thought it was working because I run the script with a small textfile, but it is not!! :(
It is creating a new hash, adding a new record at the time. it's exponential huge

$VAR1 = {
      'WaterSports' => [
                          '8765',
                          [
                            'Drysuit',
                            'r',
                            'M-L'
                          ]

        };
$VAR1 = {
          'WaterSports'=> [
                          '8765',
                          [
                            'Drysuit',
                            'r',
                            'M-L'
                          ]
                         '8365',
                          [
                            'Paddle',
                            't',
                            '45'
                          ]

                    ]
        };

This is my modify code:

open(INFILE, "products-id.txt")|| die "Cannot open products-id.txt fil
+e"; 
open (OUTPUT,">$output") or die ("Can't open file $output $!");

chomp(my @ProductArray = map { /^\s*$/ ? () : $_ } <INFILE>);
close (INFILE);

foreach my $line(@ProductArray)
{
  my ($Category, $ID, $Name, $Type, $Size) = split( / /, $line );

  push(@{$AllProducts{$Category}}, $ID, [$Name, $Type, $Size]);

print OUTPUT Dumper(\%AllProducts);

}

I also tried this

  push @{$AllProducts{$Category}}, ($ID, [$Name, $Type, $Size]);

Thanks

I am trying borisz's solutions, but as well as the others it's taking too much time to execute, so I cancelled it.. but this time the PARTIAL output I am getting is OK, I am not sure it is repeating the whole thing over and over.. `Borisz's script: #!/usr/bin/perl use Data::Dumper; my %products; while (defined( $_ = <DATA> )){ next if $. <= 2 \|\| /^\s*$/; my @d = split ' '; my $cat = shift @d; my $id = shift @d; push @{$products{$cat}}, [ $id, \@d ]; } print Dumper(\%products);` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

It is OK, I should not print the dumper(\%product) to the output file, inside the loop mmmmmm sorry about that	[reply]

It might have been better to make this a reply or update to your earlier post. Since you seemed to have missed the point of advice that others gave there, I think I'll post a reply there myself, because more information is available there regarding the problem. (In fact, maybe the present thread should be "considered" for removal or relocation.)	[reply]
