Hi, I'm confronted with this problem.I've done this before but I just can't remember how.
There is a log file I am trying to parse: open FILE , 'C:\test.csv' or die $!; while (<FILE>){ my ($logindate, $dbserver, $hostname, $status ) = split (/,/); } Now I want to use the $username as a name of a hash (sort of dynamically create a variable. So if in the end I want to print all the login records of let's say user "James", I would have a report like this: James Login Date DBServer Hostname Login Status Aug 5 mailserver mail.co.xx Success Sep 3 dnsserver dns.co.xx failed Aron Login Date DBServer Hostname Login Status Jan 5 ftpserver ftp.co.xx Success Oct 3 sshserver ssh.co.xx Success I'm really lost here. I know I have to use some sort of nested hashes but I just couldn't figure it out. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
