Yes to both. I've attached the Dumper output.
(outp.txt). Given the attached xml file, and your
first snippet/example, I tried to do something very
simple: print out my dataschema name:
foreach $d (@{$data->{dataschemas}}) {
Why {dataschemas} when the data is in {dataschema} (no "s")?
print "Dataschema: $d->{name}\n";
}
It won't print. I won't include all the variants on
the $d->{name} line I've tried, but all the results
are the same: nothing outputs.
[...]
$VAR1 = {
'dataschema' => {
[...]
This was the purpose of using Data::Dumper--to show that all
of the data is under {dataschema}. People use Data::Dumper to
find out what the structure of their data is, and then write a
program to deal with that structure.
Also, please enable strictures and warnings for your program
by placing these lines at the top:
use strict;
use warnings;
Then modify your program to run under these conditions (a lot
of work, but it pays off in bug prevention.)
From the XML::Simple doc, did you read this?
ยท check out "ForceArray" because you'll almost certainly want to turn
it on
XML::Simple does some pretty weird stuff unless you use
ForceArray, so always use ForceArray; ForceArray is what makes
XML::Simple simple.
And please don't snip attributions.
