Hello,
I had a simple array in mind, but as i got reacquainted with PERL, with the
help of the list, i realized i was thinking to small. (that's always
dangerous)
Anyway. I have an array/hash(still learning the technical differences)
similar to
(pardon syntax irregularities, just trying to show structure)
[PROCCESSID]
{DATESTRING}
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{DATESTRING}
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
Which I'm having no problems working with. I wanted to add a SERVERNAME
above PROCESSID so it becomes:
[SERVERNAME]
[PROCCESSID]
{DATESTRING}
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
[PROCCESSID]
{DATESTRING}
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
[SERVERNAME]
[PROCCESSID]
{DATESTRING}
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
{MSGNUMBER} = MSGTEXT
...etc.
I'm confused about how to get the count, and keys for the second array.
For the first i was simply using
$cnt = keys %tux_errors;
and
@tux_keys = keys %tux_errors;
when i added an additional key, i thought i could use the following (i was
wrong, of course)
$cnt = keys %tux_errors{SERVERNAME};
and
@tux_keys = keys %tux_errors{SERVERNAME};
When i try the above, i get compilation errors....
I'm sure if found a very difficult way to ask a simple syntax
question...but hey, this is [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks
Jeff
