$Aoh{ testa } = @{ exec_select ($sql ) } [0] ->{ home1 };
This piece of code basically does the following
- Execute exec_select with $sql as its argument (exec_select($sql))
- Dereference its return value as an array ( @{ ... } )
- Get the first element of this array ( @{ ... } [0] )
- Dereference the array element as a hash ( ->{ ... } )
- Get the key 'home1' from the dereferenced hash ( ->{ home1 } )
- Assign the value stored in the hash with the key 'home1' to $Aoh{testa}
"Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference..."
This error is caused by the first element in the above array being undefined. Therefor it can't be dereferenced as a hash.
Cheers, Flo

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).
