Re: Re: Determining the true type of a reference

+=0 (you meant well)

That won't work little. Try changing this line in showarray: print ref($aref), ": @$aref"; to

print ref($aref);
print "@$aref";

and you will see that it outputs 'ARRAY' which is wrong. In this case, $aref is a SCALAR reference that is blessed into the class ARRAY.

that won't work due to your own belssing I assume my $blessed = bless($ref, 'ARRAY'); # bless the scalar reference into class ARRAY Have a nice day All decision is left to your taste	[reply]
