in reply to Using -M to test age of file
Hi!
I did cut&paste your code on my editor and executed it (after filling @outputFiles with something) and it works:
Filename=[ prova.pl ] file age = [ 2.31481481481481e-05 ] Filename=[ save.pl ] file age = [ 333.155497685185 ]
Maybe the problem is that you don't specify the full path. By the way, you could change:
if ( $numOutputFiles > 0 )
with:
if ( @outputFiles > 0 )
In scalar context, @array returns the number of its elements.
Michele.
