The answer to this question is probably beyond trivial but I can't figure it out. Say we have the following situation:
my %hash = ( abcd => { a1 => 1, a2 => 2, a3 => 3 } ); another_nasty_sub (\%{$hash{abcd}}); How can I access the name (abcd) of the passed reference inside of the subroutine (not just the data a1 a2 etc but the actual key name)? Currently what I am doing is passing 'abcd' as a second value to the subroutine, but there got to be another way...? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
