But i am getting Warning, Sorry to bother you an' all, but if it's not imposing too much upon your valuable time, could you give us a hint as to which warning(s) you are getting? Thanks awfully :) Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

I suspect Sun751 is getting `WARNING: calling Tie::Hash->new since Tie::Hash->TIEHASH is missing`	[reply] [d/l]

Yes. I got that too. But my hope was that by engaging the OP in polite discourse we might elucidate why he is tying his hashes. That is, what he is hoping to achieve by doing so.

to make my out put up to the order It's hard to be sure, of course, but I wonder it you're actually looking for Tie::IxHash. Tie::Hash really doesn't do anything useful on its own. -- See the Copyright notice on my home node. Perl training courses	[reply]

Why are you using Tie::Hash? It is a base class, a skeleton, it does nothing.	[reply]

I am going to be less polite than the previous posters. Your code makes no sense or at least it doesn't make sense to me. What are you trying to do? Can you describe what you want in words? `consolidate(\%resource,\%wnt,\%unx,\%component,$informix,$oracle,$sql)`) WHEW! 4 hash refs and then 3 scalars! Flat out, you have the wrong data structure. This is not right. sorry that I was impolite. Let me help you work on how to get a better data structure...I do suggest writing some paragraphs in words that describe what you want to accomplish.

Hi, resource, wnt, unx and component are three hash which I am using to read data from (my config file). Where as informix, oracle and sql are three variable which I am using to check which database I am using. Basically I want to keep the originality so I want to use Hash Tie, after checking few data I am writing all hash creating new file using file handle. And the warning I am getting is, WARNING: calling Tie::Hash->new since Tie::Hash->TIEHASH is missing at generate_xcf.pl line 35" `Line 53 means this line in above code, 35 tie %resource,'Tie::Hash'; 36 tie %wnt,'Tie::Hash'; 37 tie %unx,'Tie::Hash'; 38 tie %component,'Tie::Hash';` [download] hope you got me, looking forward for suggestion. Cheers!!! Hurray!!! found the solution!!! add Ix in front of hash, `35 tie %resource,'Tie::IxHash'; 36 tie %wnt,'Tie::IxHash'; 37 tie %unx,'Tie::IxHash'; 38 tie %component,'Tie::IxHash';` [download] Any way thanks, Cheers	[reply] [d/l] [select]
