Monks
I have an inventory (textfile) with the following:
Category ID Name Type Size
=======================================
WaterSports 8765 Drysuit r M-L
WaterSports 8365 Paddle t 45
…
WinterSports 5231 Snowboard j 85
WinterSports 5281 Gloves r S
Etc..
I want to create a hash of hashes like the following
$VAR1 = {
          'WaterSports' => [
                          '8765',
                          [
                            'Drysuit',
                            'r',
                            'M-L'
                          ]
                          '8365',
                          [
                            'Paddle',
                            't',
                            '45'
                          ]
                        ]
        };

But instead my code is creating this, what is wrong?
$VAR1 = {
      'WaterSports' => [
                          '8765',
                          [
                            'Drysuit',
                            'r',
                            'M-L'
                          ]

        };
$VAR1 = {
          'WaterSports'=> [
                          '8365',
                          [
                            'Paddle',
                            't',
                            '45'
                          ]
                    ]
        };

This is my code: 
open(INFILE, "products-id.txt")|| die "Cannot open products-id.txt fil
+e"; 
open (OUTPUT,">$output") or die ("Can't open file $output $!");

chomp(my @ProductArray = map { /^\s*$/ ? () : $_ } <INFILE>);
close (INFILE);

foreach my $line(@ProductArray)
{
  my ($Category, $ID, $Name, $Type, $Size) = split( / /, $line );

  %AllProducts = ($Category => [$ID, [$Name, $Type, $Size]]);

print OUTPUT Dumper(\%AllProducts);

}
