Re^2: XML dynamic nesting !!

[onkar]

<Root>
     <Databasechecks>
              <Dbname>DB01</Dbname>
                      <Runquery>some query</Runquery>
     </Databasechecks>
 
     <Databasechecks>
              <Dbname>DB02</Dbname>
                      <Runquery>
                           <xyz>dfdf</xyz>
                       some query
                      </Runquery>
     </Databsechecks>
 
 </Root>

here there are two Database checks in the same level . But in the second Databasechecks we have nested xyz tag which is not there in the first Database check. Using XML::Simple module, we can get query result , but we get xyz as hashreference. The code written for first Database check should also parse n number of nodes added to second Databasechecks. How can we know that ? and how can we implement that ? If u know please tell me the solution.

You should read the XML::Simple documentation about the ForceArray parameter.

In this case it looks more like onkar needs ForceContent but restricted to the <Runquery> tag. (I did send Grant a patch to allow that years ago ...)

onkar you may find it easier to let XML::Rules infer the base set of rules for you and then tweak them so that it produces a convenient data structure.
