Hi; Trying to crate a nested hash from variables parsed out of log files but as I am a "Beginner Perl' coder it is failing terribly. The basic question is given you have 5 variables how would you make a nested hash.
Thanks ! Scot I hope this is enough code to example my problem. -------------- snip ---------------------- foreach (@wwwlogs) { %time=(); ($wwwname,$cust,$YYMMDDay) = split('\.',$_); open (LOG, $_ ) || die "Can't open $_!: $! \n"; while (LOG>) { chomp; # Walk through log file and look for our string. ($pid,$hhmmss,$host,$custname,$custsub,$site,$junk) = split('\|',$_); # print(SPLITVARS= $hhmmss,$host,$custname,$custsub,$site\n); $time=>{$custname}=>{$custsub}=>{$site}=>{$YYMMDDay} = $hhmmss; } etc etc etc -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
