How can you edit a file inline.
I can of course open it and then write it out back to a tmp file. Then
rename the files.
But is there a way to do it inline so that perl handles the temp files and
cleanup?
I have seen tons of examples using the command line but how can you do it in
a script.
For instance.
foreach (glob ("*.pl"){
open ( IN, "<$_" ) or die ("Cannot open file $_ $!\n" );
while (<IN>){
$_ =~ s/dbi:xxx:xxx/dbi:yyy:yyy/;
}
}
