Data Structure Problem:

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Anyone have any idea why I can't populate my array with the information from the variable array?

{
  'tree' => undef,
  'macros' => undef,
  'traps' => {
    'xPnniNeighborFailure9' => {
      'description' => '"An alarm indicating that a neighbor on a part
+icular port 
                has ceased communication with this switching system."'
+,
      'value' => '55',
      'variables' => [
        'xPnniTrapNeighborId',
        'xPnniTrapPnPortId'
      ],
      'type' => 'TRAP-TYPE',
      'enterprise' => 'omniswitch9'
    },

I'm trying to populate @trap_varbinds with the variable array like so:

@trap_varbinds = $name->{'traps'}->{'xPnniNeighborFailure9'}->{'variab
+les'}->[];

You can use array reference: `$trap_varbinds_ref = $name->{traps}->{xPnniNeighborFailure9}->{variabl +es}; for(@$trap_varbinds_ref) { <do something ...> {` [download] ================ { firstname => 'Michael', quote => 'Mice were crying and stinging but went on nibbling the cactus', }	[reply] [d/l]
