I have a string that was read from a file( in BINMODE ).
After I read from the file, I store the string in a variable
called $line. Right after that, I do a substitution to get
rid of any leading characters that are hex 00( "\x00" )
$line=~s/^\x00+//;
Sometimes, there can be anywhere from 1 to 50 extra \x00
characters in front of the string.
The problem, is that occasionally the substitution doesn't
get rid all of the \x00 characters which results in a string
that can't be parsed correctly. Any suggestions to make
sure the \x00 characters get removed?
I'm using ActivePerl 5.6 on NT Server SP6a.
Thanks!!!
