I'm just starting out with XML::Simple and can't get
any output to display to STDOUT.  What am I missing?

-------------------
Source XML snippet:
-------------------
<dataschemas>
  <dataschema name="defaultDB">
    <includes>
      <include name="Base Metadata"/>
      <include name="Extracted Re-Map"/>
    </includes>
    <attributes>
      <attribute category="" parser="TextParser"
extract="true" segmentation="soft"/>
    </attributes>
  </dataschema>
</dataschemas>

---------------
Perl code:
----------------
# use modules
use XML::Simple;
use Data::Dumper;

# create object
$xml = new XML::Simple (KeyAttr=>[]);

# read XML file

$data=
$xml->XMLin("C:\datafiles\specialIncludes.xml");

# dereference hash reference
# access <dataschemas> array

print "before loop ...\n";
foreach $d (@{$data->{dataschema}}) {
  print "in \$d loop ...\n";
  print "dataschema is: ", $d->{includes}->{name},
"\n"; 
}
print "finished\n";

---------------
Output:
---------------
before loop ...
finished

Thanks, BW
