: I have the following data structure:
:
: $hash{$connid} = {"month" => $month,
: "day" => $day,
: "time" => $time,
: "user" => $user,
: "host" => $host,
: "from_ip" => $from_ip,
: };
:
: The time (where time is in hh:mm:ss format) and there could be a few
entries
: with the same user and same timestamp - I only wish to display the first
: one.
:
: So this works just fine. The problem is that I need to also sort the
: results by month, day, and time. It looks as if the month and day fields
: are sorting, but not the time field, and I am unsure as to how to sort
this.
:
: What do you mean by "not the time field?" Perhaps you need to use "cmp"
instead of "<=>" (maybe you are; you :
: didn't show any sorting code!) since there are embedded colons, or you
need to make sure your hours before 10
: have leading zeros so they sort correctly ("hh:mm:ss" implies that they
already do, but maybe you didn't mean
: that).

Sorry for not being specific enough. The data gets displayed with the times
in no particular order. I might have:
10:02:34
06:05:01
09:00:01
Etc. I agree that cmp would have to be used instead of <=>, but I am not
sure as to how to implement this kind of sort on a single hash key when I am
doing a foreach loop on all the keys. Any assistance would be greatly
appreciated!
Best regards,
