Is there anything wrong with passing a hash reference like this:
#!/usr/bin/perl $fruit{'Apple'} = "Red"; $fruit{'Orange'} = "Orange"; $fruit{'Grape'} = "Purple"; $fruit{'Lemon'} = "Yellow"; $fruit{'Lime'} = "Green"; $myHashref=\%fruit; print "Hash reference to send = $myHashref\n"; print "Print local hash\n\n"; foreach $key (sort keys %fruit) { print $key, '=', $fruit{$key}, "\n"; } print "\nLeaving Main\n\n"; &mysubrtn($myHashref); sub mysubrtn() { local *myref = shift ; print "In my Subrtn\n"; print "Print hash via reference\n\n"; foreach $key (sort keys %myref ) { print $key, '=', $myref{$key}, "\n"; } }
I believe this is called the typeglob approach. The original example code is below.
This doesn't seem to be as straight forward to me. Is this just my lack of understanding? Opinions?
[root@dubya perl]# cat fruit2.pl #!/usr/bin/perl $fruit{'Apple'} = "Red"; $fruit{'Orange'} = "Orange"; $fruit{'Grape'} = "Purple"; $fruit{'Lemon'} = "Yellow"; $fruit{'Lime'} = "Green"; $myHashref=\%fruit; print "Hash reference to send = $myHashref\n"; print "Print local hash\n\n"; foreach $key (sort keys %fruit) { print $key, '=', $fruit{$key}, "\n"; } print "\nLeaving Main\n\n"; &mysubrtn($myHashref); sub mysubrtn() { $myref = shift ; print "In my Subrtn\n"; print "Print hash via reference\n\n"; foreach $key (sort keys %$myref ) { print $key, '=', ${ $myref }{$key}, "\n"; } }

  • 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.
