in reply to Re: Using Data::Dumper
in thread Problem working with Hashes

confirmed, but Dumper($ret) is what was needed.

$ct contains the whole crontab, whereas $ret just contains the returned value from the query.

Thank you, deMize


Update: As a response to the question about where $ret came from, as stated in the initial post, this was a carryover from a CB conversation. Scratchpad wasn't working, so it was posted here. $ret is the implied returned value from the query. In the case above it would be $r|x|y. I think in my CB question I actually named $r as $ret.

    If you knew all this, why did you bother to ask the (implied) original question in the first place? Were you testing the poor monks?

    And what the heck is  $ret and where did it come from, anyway?
