Re^2: marking time during function call

A simple script would be like

 @march = `cleartool find /vobs/41Rational_Val/. -all -print`;
while (<@march>) {    ### processing...                  done
}
print "\n";
close(@march);

This using the Smart Comments module. But it waits until the load of the array finishes before displaying the progress.

I don't have time at the moment to do full justice to this, but an (untested!) snippet might look like this: `open(my $FH, "cleartool find /vobs/41Rational_Val/. -all -print\|") or die "Something went wrong\n"; print STDERR "Reading cleartool command, line "; while (<$FH>) { do_something_here; unless ($. % 200) { # every 200 lines print STDERR "$. "; } }` [download] However, there is no way to know the percent complete progress of the cleartool command. -QM -- Quantum Mechanics: The dreams stuff is made of	[reply] [d/l]

QM A Scholar and a Gentleman Thank You. I was able to modify slightly and now have a basic heartbeat while the array is loaded	[reply]
