Re^2: Juggling structures with Template Toolkit

Okay, that makes sense. Thank you.

that's bordering on a little too much processing in TT code

How would you go about doing that processing within the script then? I did try something along the lines of the following snippet and it failed horribly. Perhaps I'm just a little off?

$TMPL->process('something.tmpl', {
   myopts => [
      map { {value => $_} } qw(one two three)
   ]
} );

__END__
[% PROCESS "another.tmpl"  options => myopts %]

That works perfectly for me, except that it looks like you should have assigned that array to "options" instead of "myopts" or maybe both.	[reply]

update: I will now admit that I am officially dumbed out for the day. The script method with the map works fine. I don't know what happened earlier. Perhaps I forgot to double up the curly braces around the map. Thanks to merlyn for showing a TT way of doing it anyhow :)	[reply]

I asked a similar question on the TT mailing list back in December of 2003. extremely responded "... maybe you should just fix it in Perl rather than trying get TT to be a full language with all the amenities." Indeed, TT is candy store and we are kids. :) jeffa L-LL-L--L-LL-L--L-LL-L-- -R--R-RR-R--R-RR-R--R-RR B--B--B--B--B--B--B--B-- H---H---H---H---H---H--- (the triplet paradiddle with high-hat)	[reply]
