Re^2: Being impervious to an 'each' reset

You could avoid copying the large hash by using a reference:

my $thingy_ref = \%Foo::Bar::Baz::thingy;

foreach my $key ( keys %$thingy_ref ){
    print "$key => $thingy_ref->{ $key }\n";
}

Erm, then you'd have a reference to the same hash you're trying to avoid resetting the each iterator and the OP would be back to square one. The iterator is a property of the underlying hash, not how it's accessed.	[reply]
