Could someone please direct me to some web pages where I can go through
all deprecated perl functions and/or ways of writing perl script? It is
not easy for me to figure out whether an on-line example is deprecated or
not. I once saw:
@files = <$path_to_directory>
on the web and found it worked perfectly, then kept using this way of
writing my perl script. But I was told yesterday such a script is
deprecated now.
AFAIK that is not deprecated.
Can you explain how it works?
I have tried the script below, and of course it doesn't print anything:
use strict;
my $path_to_directory = '/';
my @files = <$path_to_directory>;
foreach my $file(@files) {
print "$file\n";
}
Thanks.
