I have used Perl for a while, and always used dumpvar.pl / main::dumpvalue() to dump out things (I guess that tells you how long! 8-))
I had a look at Data::Dumper - but its dumps are either too terse (i.e. all one line) or too verbose (i.e. I am dumping data structures and don't really need to waste lots of lines to meet the style guidelines [some of my hashes and arrays are rather large e.g. MB]) I have a quick look at Dumpvalue - but that seems to print to STDOUT rather than returning a string and letting me pass the results through our logging routines, which log to tty and syslog etc. Are there other tidy ways to do dumping? What about the wider question of logging and log levels [debug verbose more verbose etc etc]? TIA Jff -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
