Re: How to keep the order of keys in hash

[perlfan]

I think you want to use Tie::Hash::Indexed, maybe.

I don't think that Data::Dumper is going to show you want you want since it's the internal implementation of the hash's accessors via the Tie::Hash interface that actually provide the ordering you need.

If you need to maintain some sorted order not related to insert order, then you might need to look as some sort of Perl based heap implementation like, Heap::Simple.

Hello perlfan,

I will read the Heap::Simple CPAN module that you suggested. It is always nice to learn more things.

Thank you for your time and effort replying and assisting me on my question.
