( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
I am using perl 5.10. I am iterating through a for loop. inside that loop I am trying to add an array to a list and then clear the array so I can add different items on the next iteration of the for loop. But when I clear the array, it's clearing the array that I already added to the hash. Here is my code:
      # WRONG!!! This will create a reference (so when we clear it       # a couple lines later everything will be deleted).       # $current_main_record{"role_data"} = \@role_records;         # CORRECT? Recursively copy everything in the entire array,       # so that we can clear it a couple lines down?       # Clear array for next go-round of the loop?.       @role_records = ();
I want $current_main_record(“role_data”) to hold @role_records, an array of hashes. I want to create a new array with the same name, I guess. How do I do that?

  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
