Re^2: Reading session data

Correct me if I'm wrong, but using a YAML lib would only work whenever I use YAML for my sessions. Which is not good practice in a production env as I understand. The session should be agnostic to the format in which it is stored.

Your example data used YAML; I used an appropriate module to get that data into a Perl data structure. My point, however, was not about YAML; it was in relation to old and new syntax. hippo had already shown how to get a single array element: `$session_data->{azuread}{login_info}{roles}[0]` [download] I showed a newer syntax for getting the entire array: `$session_data->{azuread}{login_info}{roles}->@*` [download] Your post resulted in further discussion of old/new syntax. It was an interesting conversation; so, thanks for that. — Ken	[reply] [d/l] [select]

$session_data->{azuread}{login_info}{roles}[0]
