Re: Maintainance of element order in hash

FAQ: How can I always keep my hash sorted?

[ravi45722]

In seen  Tie::IxHash but in this I am seeing only key pair value. But I dont understand how to give nested hashes into it. Can you write a small snipplet for the above example using Tie::Ixhash

I dont understand how to give nested hashes into it

#!/usr/bin/env perl 
# Hash order maintained
use strict;
use warnings;

use Test::More tests => 1;
use Tie::IxHash;

tie my %foo, 'Tie::IxHash';
$foo{a} = [3, 2, 1];
$foo{b} = { s => 'senatus', p => 'populus', q => 'que', r => 'romanus'
+ };

is_deeply ([keys %foo], [qw/a b/], 'Order retained');

and see perldsc for how to use nested data structures generally.

Thanks for reply. I tried this by using your example. But when I dumping the hash it is not in the ordered as we inserted. Where I am missing the logic???

#!/usr/bin/env perl
# Hash order maintained
use strict;
use warnings;

use Test::More tests => 1;
use Tie::IxHash;
use Data::Dumper;

tie my %foo, 'Tie::IxHash';
$foo{a}{c} = [3, 2, 1];
$foo{a}{b}{x} = { s => 'senatus', p => 'populus', q => 'que', r => 'ro
+manus'};
$foo{a}{b}{y} = "ravi";


print Dumper \%foo;
