Hi. I'm sorry if this question has popped up before but I've been searching and trying stuff and can't get it to work. I'm using XML::Simple to generate a XML file. Another script requests that file and uses XML::Simple to read it (XMLIn()). The result of XMLIn() is:
$VAR1 = [ [ { 'BERICHT' => 'test', 'IP' => '127.0.0.1', 'NAAM' => 'test' }, { 'BERICHT' => 'test', 'IP' => '127.0.0.1', 'NAAM' => 'Htbaa' } ], { 'rm' => 'start', 'dummy' => '' } ];
I've figured out how I can access the stuff like BERICHT, NAAM and IP. But I can't get 'rm' and 'dummy'. To get the contents of the array in this scalar I use
foreach (@{$ref}) { print "<b>". $_->{'NAAM'} . "</b><br>"; }
But how can I get 'rm' and 'dummy' ? I've tried a lot of different stuff but somehow can not get the data. All the examples on the web use a hash (instead $VAR1 it's %VAR1). But as long as I kind manipulate the result of XLMin() (or can I?) I have no idea on how to reach that data. Any help is more than welcome.
