You could print the verion like this
open(FILEHANDLE,">test.txt") or die "Can't open the file: $!";
print FILEHANDLE "$]\n"; # $] is the special variable that holds the running
version of Perl
close FILEHANDLE;
or if you really want the output of perl -v
$returned = `perl -v`;
open(FILEHANDLE,">test.txt") or die "Can't open the file: $!";
print FILEHANDLE "$returned\n";
close FILEHANDLE;

Subject: Input redirection
Hi,
I need the o/p of
perl -v
to be redirected to a file test.txt
open(FILEHANDLE,"> test.txt") || die can't open the file";
print FILEHANDLE perl -v ;
one executing this , I get the following error
Unrecognized file test: -v at D:\test\perl\TEST1.PL line 6.
How to write the o/p of 'perl -v' in the file(test.txt).
Thanks in advance,
jaya
