( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

If you're asking how to access the data structure returned by XML::Simple, that entirely depends on the structure of your XML. There is nothing wrong with the code that you've listed above, but if you're wanting to know why $ref->{$_} isn't listing deeper contents, maybe it's because it's a more complex data structure than just a scalar?

If so, just use Data::Dumper to output it or use ref to determine what type it is and use recursion:

foreach (keys %{$ref}) { print $_." ".Dumper($ref->{$_})."\n"; }

Note, there are parameters that you can pass to XMLin to adjust the way that it creates the data structure from the source XML. Just read the cpan docs for more details.

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.
