Re^2: How to save and reload my hash

Hello dear Monks,

first thanks for you answers.

I first tried : (cos it's the shortest)

use Storable;
 # fill my hash
 store \%host_info, 'file';
 %host_info = ();
 %host_info = %{retrieve('file')};
 # print my hash
[download]

This worked. Don't know what I did yesterday, when I used

store \%host_info, 'file';

(probably not exactly that) It had a file with just

pst01234(and some unprintable chars).
[download]

Maybe I should not code until 6am.

Thank you all.

Have a nice day !

The output that Storable produces is not meant to be human-readable. So it's probably true that whatever you were doing worked just fine. You just have to sort of trust (or test it) that when you read it back in using `retrieve` it'll come out ok.	[reply] [d/l]
