use AnyData; my $table = adHash( 'Ini', $filename,'r',$flags ); while (my $row = each %$table) { print $row->{name},"\n" if $row->{country} =~ /us|mx|ca/; } # ... other tied hash operations
OR
use DBI my $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:AnyData:'); $dbh->func('table1','Init', $filename,$flags,'ad_catalog'); my $hits = $dbh->selectall_arrayref( qq{ SELECT name FROM table1 WHERE country = 'us' }); # ... other DBI/SQL operations
This is a parser for simple name=value style Ini files. Soon it will also handle files with sections.
Please refer to the documentation for AnyData.pm and DBD::AnyData.pm for further details.
