Hi Everyone,
I am trying to match file & subdir names from a back tic generated list.
I never find anything and there are files in the directory with a correct name.
but if i make up a list to use as filenames
it works as i expect ... any insight greatly appreciated
thanks
Jim
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my @files = qw (filename1 filename2 filename3 filename4);
#my @dir = qw (file filenaml filename filename2);
my @dir = `dir`;
foreach my $file (@files)
{
foreach my $line (@dir)
{
if ($file =~ m/$line/)
{
print "\nfound one\n";
}
print "file - $file ";
print "line - $line\n";
}
}
