Re^3: XML::Simple parsing into a hash wierd behaviour

No, you didn't miss anything. I missed one sentence in your OP, that you wanted name as the key - you said that you didn't like the output from the single element case.

My focus was on making the multi-element case to produce a more consistent result as the single element case ;-)

Hope this puts both of us on the same page.

My focus was on making the multi-element case to produce a more consistent result as the single element case That would be great since the OP asked for the single element case to stop "behaving differently". Unfortuantly, `KeyAttr=>[]` doesn't achieve that goal at all. `Default Multiple: $tree->{type}{default}{report} Single: $tree->{type} {report} Inconsistent KeyAttr=>[] Multiple: $tree->{type}[0]{report} Single: $tree->{type} {report} Inconsistent ForceArray=>[qw( type )] Multiple: $tree->{type}{default}{report} Single: $tree->{type}{default}{report} Consistent ForceArray=>[qw( type )], KeyAttr=>[] Multiple: $tree->{type}[0]{report} Single: $tree->{type}[0]{report} Consistent` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
