I modified your quoting and removed unecessary quotes and added necessary ones
to make it obvious where they're needed. Note the quoting on version field
references which contain '.'s.
use strict;
use warnings;
my $db_con = 'PROD';
my %INST= (
PROD => {
fullname => 'PRODUCTION',
dbhost => {
proddb => {
sshcon => '',
sshtime => 0,
},
},
webhost1 => {
prodweb1 => {
websshcon1 => '',
sshtime => 0,
},
},
webhost2 => {
prodweb2 => {
websshcon2 => '',
sshtime => 0,
},
},
numweb => 2,
version => '8.1.7',
},
DEV => {
fullname => 'DEVELOPMENT',
dbhost => {
devweb => {
dbsshcon => '',
sshtime => 0,
},
},
webhost1 => {
devweb1 => {
websshcon1 => '',
sshtime => 0,
},
},
numweb => 1,
version => '9.2.0',
},
);
my %QUERIES = (
APPUSER => {
'8.1.7' => {
count => q{select count(*) from my_table1},
list => q{select * from my_table1},
},
'9.2.0' => {
count => q{select count(*) from my_table2},
list => q{select * from my_table2},
}
}
);
print $INST{$db_con}{version} . "\n";
print "TEST 1\n" . $QUERIES{APPUSER}{'9.2.0'}{count} . "\n";
print "Attempt to retreive version number from second reference that " .
"relies on the value of $db_con\n";
print "TEST 2\n" . $QUERIES{APPUSER}{$INST{$db_con}{version}}{count} . "\n";
