But it works.

Er, almost :-(
There is a bug in sub build_tree.
To fix it, you have to replace the  if that pops the stack by a while .
The test below shows the difference.

#! perl -w use strict; use File::Find; use File::Path; use Data::Dumper; $Data::Dumper::Indent = 1; my $dir = './buildtreetestdir'; mkpath "$dir"; mkpath "$dir/dir1"; mkpath "$dir/dir1/dir11"; mkpath "$dir/dir2"; mkpath "$dir/dir2/dir21"; build_tree(my $tree, $dir); build_tree_fixed(my $tree_fixed, $dir); print Data::Dumper->Dump( [ $tree, $tree_fixed ], [ qw / tree tree_fix +ed / ] ); { sub build_tree { my $node = $_[0] = {}; my @s; find( sub { $node = (pop @s)->[1] if @s and $File::Find::dir ne $s[-1][0]; return $node->{$_} = -s if -f; push @s, [ $File::Find::name, $node ]; $node = $node->{$_} = {}; }, $_[1]); $_[0]{$_[1]} = delete $_[0]{'.'}; } } { sub build_tree_fixed { my $node = $_[0] = {}; my @s; find( sub { $node = (pop @s)->[1] while @s and $File::Find::dir ne $s[-1][0] +; return $node->{$_} = -s if -f; push @s, [ $File::Find::name, $node ]; $node = $node->{$_} = {}; }, $_[1]); $_[0]{$_[1]} = delete $_[0]{'.'}; } } __END__ $tree = { './buildtreetestdir' => { 'dir2' => { 'dir21' => {}, 'dir1' => { 'dir11' => {} } } } }; $tree_fixed = { './buildtreetestdir' => { 'dir1' => { 'dir11' => {} }, 'dir2' => { 'dir21' => {} } } };
