Re: Problem with hash dereferencing from DBI example

in reply to Problem with hash dereferencing from DBI example

keys %{ %$ParamValues, %$ParamTypes };

That doesn't make any sense. %{ ... } dereferences a hash reference, but %$ParamValues, %$ParamTypes is not one.

Maybe for (keys %$ParamValues), (keys %$ParamTypes) is meant instead?

Thanks moritz. I got confused and was thinking the {} was turning it into a reference when in fact the {} is part of the %{}. So it would need to be %{{%$ParamValues, %$ParamTypes}} if it was to work as I thought. The 1/8 confused me - I couldn't see where the 8 came from.	[reply]

The `1/8` is the hash stringification. It means that 8 buckets are allocated, and one is used. perldata has the gory details. Perl 6 - second systems done right	[reply] [d/l]
