I'm trying to automate g++ through a Perl script. Here is what I have written so far:
#!/bin/perl -w use strict; my $counter; $counter = 0; for (my $i = 0; $i < @ARGV; $i++) { $counter++; } if ($counter == 0) { print "Not enough arguments!"; print "Usage: ./cedit somefile.C++"; print "Usage (optional): ./cedit somefile.C++ outputfile"; } elsif ($counter == 1) { system "g++", (first invocation argument); How do I call individual arguments from the @ARGV array? Basically, the usage of the script (called cedit) is: $./cedit somefile.C++ or $./cedit somefile.C++ outputfile The first argument is the .C++ file to be compiled, and the second argument is the name of the .exe file. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
