hi, I need to add a cli option to my script to push multiple values in a hash. I have verified that using Getopt::Long this is possible, but cannot get my head around dereferencing it.
This is a sample code: ============================================================== use strict; use warnings; use Getopt::Long; Getopt::Long::Configure( "no_ignore_case", "bundling" ); my ($checknow, $help, $revision, %excl_ref ); GetOptions( 'c|checknow' => \$checknow, 'h|help|?' => \$help, 'V|version' => \$revision, 'e|exclude=s%' => sub { push( @{$excl_ref{$_[1]}}, $_[2] ) }, ); use Data::Dumper; print Dumper %excl_ref; ============================================================= when I run this I get: ./kk.pl -e test=1 -e test=2 -e test=3 $VAR1 = 'test'; $VAR2 = [ '1', '2', '3' ]; But I do not see how I can retrieve these values. I understand that in Getopt::Long when we use a sub, the first argument $_[0] is the name of the option, $_[1] in this case is the key and $_[2] is the value, but I do not understand how I can dereference it, I am afraid. Any help appreciated. TIA. -- Groeten, natxo -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
