String To Hash Conversion

[Prabu Ayyappan]

Hi All,

I want to convert a string into a Hash data structure

For Example

String:
"[['aaa',{27' => '543','21' => '111','Client' => '543','chat' => '111'}]]"

Hash:
[['aaa',{27' => '543','21' => '111','Client' => '543','chat' => '111'}]

From CPAN I got a module called Convert/PerlRef2String

http://search.cpan.org/~kaili/Convert-PerlRef2String-0.03/lib/Convert/PerlRef2String.pm

But for that i want to encode the string to base64 and then want to give the string as parameter for string2perlref($string);

Is it advisable. Please help me.

Thanks,
Prabu

C:\home>type test.pl
use Data::Dumper;
$string = "['aaa',{'27' => '543','21' => '111',
'Client' => '543','chat' => '111'}]";
$ref = eval $string;
print Dumper $ref;

C:\home>test.pl
$VAR1 = [

'aaa',
{
'27' => '543',
'21' => '111',
'Client' => '543',
'chat' => '111'
}

];
