The iterator is also implicitly used whenever the hash is evaluated in list context. The iterator is "reset" whenever 'keys' or 'values' is called on a hash, including the implicit calls when the hash is evaluated in list context. That makes it dangerous to do certain hash operations inside a 'while ... each' loop: while (my($k,$v) = each %hash) { ... @k = sort keys %hash; # Infinite loop! @v = grep { /foo/ }, values %hash; # Ack! print join ' ', %hash; # Run away! } 'Hash::SafeKeys' provides alternate functions to access the keys, values, or entire contents of a hash in a way that does not reset the iterator, making them safe to use in such contexts: while (my($k,$v) = each %hash) { ... @k = sort safekeys %hash; # Can do @v = grep { /foo/ }, safevalues %hash; # No problem print join ' ', safecopy %hash; # Right away, sir } %prep %autosetup -n %{cpan_name}-%{cpan_version} %build perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=vendor OPTIMIZE="%{optflags}" %make_build %check make test %install %perl_make_install %perl_process_packlist %perl_gen_filelist %files -f %{name}.files %doc Changes README %changelog
