in reply to Parse::RecDescent and auto{actions,trees} and stuff

Your autoaction is returning 1 instead of, perhaps, $item[1]. The 1 is the return value of the print statement in your autoaction code. That's why you are seeing in your output: 
int=10
time=1
int=12
load=1
...

instead of: 
int=10
time=10
int=12
load=12
...

Also, in your case you can safely remove the assignments to $return from your code. Assigning to $return is useful if, for instance, the return value is determined by an action block which is not the last: 

production: stuff { $return = ... } and other { ... } things { ... }

Normally the return value would be whatever is returned by the action following things, but in this case it is set by the code in the action following stuff.

    Hi,

    Well that explains things nicely and fixs for me my autoaction issue :-)

    But any idea why autotree won't work ?

    :-(

      <autotree> only specifies actions for those rules which don't already have actions.

        I get the fact it only works for rules without actions (but I could be missing something here). But I don't get why it breaks my code and stops the recursion as it shouldn't affect the custom case...
