Hi,
I am trying to process source hash and build the container hash
The output of container hash looks like this,

$VAR1 = {
          'KEYS' => 'APPLICATION_SERVER/SERVICE_LIST/Calculator'
        };
$VAR1 = {
          'KEYS' => 'APPLICATION_SERVER/SERVICE_LIST/Calculator/Budget
+'
        };
$VAR1 = {
          'KEYS' => 'APPLICATION_SERVER/SERVICE_LIST/Calculator/Budget
+/Account'
        };

But I want the container hash to look like this,

$VAR1 = {
          'KEYS' => 'APPLICATION_SERVER/SERVICE_LIST/Calculator'
        };
$VAR1 = {
          'KEYS' => 'APPLICATION_SERVER/SERVICE_LIST/Budget'
        };
$VAR1 = {
         'KEYS' => 'APPLICATION_SERVER/SERVICE_LIST/Account'
        };

Can any one suggest me how can this be done? Below I have attached my code.Thanks,

my $source = getHash();
my %container;
tie %container,'Tie::IxHash';
walkHash($source, \%container);

sub walkHash
{
    my $h = shift;
    my $container = shift;

    foreach my $key (keys %$h)
    {
        if($key ne 'Leaf' && ref $h->{$key} )
        {
                $container->{KEYS} = "$container->{KEYS}/$key"
                                    if(exists $container->{KEYS});
                $container->{KEYS} = $key
                             unless(exists $container->{KEYS});
            walkHash($h->{$key}, $container);
        }
        else
        {
            #Process hash under 'LEAF' key here.
            print Dumper($container);
        }
    }
}

{
    my %hash =
    (
