Re: what type of dsc is this

My best guess is an array of blessed hashes...

Agreed... and a little snippet that might be helpful?

perl -Mstrict -MData::Dumper -we '
package Test;
  sub new {
    my $class = shift;
    my $stuff = {};        
    bless $stuff, $class;
    return $stuff;
 }
package Main;
  my $t = [
    Test->new("foo"),
    Test->new("bar"),
    Test->new("baz"),
  ];
  print "Ref: " . ref($t) . "\n";
  print Data::Dumper->Dump([$t]) . "\n";
'

__output__
Ref: ARRAY
$VAR1 = [
          bless( {}, 'Test' ),
          bless( {}, 'Test' ),
          bless( {}, 'Test' )
        ];

Suggestion, it's even more helpful if you put the passed arguments into $stuff. :) Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) Wikisyntax for the Monastery FootballPerl is like chess, only without the dice}	[reply]

I thought of that, but did not in order to leave my references empty, similar to the OP's. But, if you insist. :) `perl -Mstrict -MData::Dumper -we ' package Test; sub new { my $class = shift; my $stuff = { shift() => 1}; bless $stuff, $class; return $stuff; } package Main; my $t = [ Test->new("foo"), Test->new("bar"), Test->new("baz"), ]; print "Ref: " . ref($t) . "\n"; print Data::Dumper->Dump([$t], ["for_LanX"]) . "\n"; ' __output__ Ref: ARRAY $for_LanX = [ bless( { 'foo' => 1 }, 'Test' ), bless( { 'bar' => 1 }, 'Test' ), bless( { 'baz' => 1 }, 'Test' ) ];` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
