Storable.pm seems to be a great little module (for 1D anyways) , however I can't see to get multi-dimensional hashes to store properly. I only really need two dimensions i.e. $Hash{$Key1}{$Key2} Someone must have done this before. Some pointers and/or code snippets would be greatly appreciated. Here is my functional 1D code:
# Near start of function which Builds %WordsHash if ( -f 'data/BuildWordsHash.dat' ) { # Get a reference to the read in WordHashs $rhWordsHash = retrieve('data/BuildWordsHash.dat') or die"ERROR: can +'t retrieve WordsHash!\n"; print keys %$rhWordsHash; %::WordsHash=%$rhWordsHash; #Put the WordsHash back into the right + hash. undef($rhWordsHash); print "Using data/BuildWordsHash.dat; Delete and rerun to rebuild Wo +rdsHash.\n"; return; } #... # Near end of function which build %WordsHash # Save a copy of this WordsHash for later use eval { store(\%::WordsHash, 'data/BuildWordsHash.dat'); }; print "Error writing to file: $@" if $@; return 0;
