I just tried it too. It turns out that import_names() does this in an interesting fashion; it imports all parameters as both scalars and arrays.
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use CGI;
my $query = new CGI ( { single => 'one',
multi => ['two', 'three'],
}
);
$query->import_names('Q');
1;
Now, using the debugger to examine the results:
Loading DB routines from perl5db.pl version 1.0402
Emacs support available.
Enter h or `h h' for help.
main::(tmp.cgi:5): my $query = new CGI ( { single => 'one',
main::(tmp.cgi:6): multi => ['two', 'thr
+ee'],
DB<1> n
main::(tmp.cgi:10): $query->import_names('Q');
DB<1> n
main::(tmp.cgi:12): 1;
DB<1> V Q
$single = 'one'
@single = (
0 'one'
)
$multi = 'two'
@multi = (
0 'two'
1 'three'
)
DB<2>
