Re^3: passing reference to subroutine

What do you really want to do? The dereference is as simple as undef @$ref; (see below for the entire updated sub), but I have the strong feeling that you are asking the wrong question and providing the wrong sample code. It seems extraordinary that you would call a sub just to clear an array!

sub undef_ref {
    my $ref    = shift;
    undef @$ref;
    print '=' x 20;
    print "\n";
    print Dumper (@$ref);
}

Well, I'm trying to modify an array in a subroutine. I have chose to undef my array because... well... i thought it would be good example. I was wrong :) Your code works as expected. Thank you very much	[reply]
