It's not directly related to your issue, but note that your code is needlessly over-complex, and could be simplified enormously. Every case code block is virtually identical apart from (AFAIKT) differences in the constants for the comparisons and minor differences in what is output. This could be handled as a simple hash of hashes of arrays. In outline:
my %actions = ( '000005' => { '1205' => [ 58, 62, ... ], '1210' => [ 56, 60, ... ], ... }, '000015' => { '1215' => [ 28, 30, ... ], '1230' => [ 26, 28, ... ], ... }, ); ... my $action = $actions[$field[11]; if ($action) { my $action2 = $action->{$timestamp}; if ($action2) { my ($maxarray, $field_ix, $whatever_else) = @$action2; if ($arraysize > $maxarray and $field[$field_ix] eq '') { .... } else { .... } } else { .... } } else { .... }
In any case, don't rely on Switch: it's buggy and was removed from the perl core 6 years ago.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
