sort on values in an array of hashes

[kprasanna_79]

Greetings Monks,
i have an array of hashes, in which i want to sort the array with values of the hashes.

push (@found, {name => $1}) if(/*.pm/);
...

i want the @found array to be sorted on the values of hash.
I seek your wisdom in this respect.

Not sure if what you want is this...

 @array = sort { $a->{name} cmp $b->{name}} @found;

Good luck

push (@found, {name => $1}) if(/*.pm/);

Except that this won't even compile and if it did, then it would be pointless to use $1 for there are no capturing parens. Hint: regexen are not shell patterns.

Hint no. 2: post real code when asking for help.

PS: slight smell of XY here...
