Re: Re: Tie::File strangeness with unshift

line 699 in v0.95 (which i'm using, see above) is:

    read $fh, $old, $readsizei;
[download]

And... it turns out that when i was "uninstalling" 0.95 as mentioned above, it wasn't being uninstalled... i found the offending file (to look at it above) and renamed it.

The test script now magically works ( locate File.pm reports another copy of File.pm, that one is v0.93)

914, I couldn't let this drop - glad that you found the problem. I am intrigued though. Are you sure line 699 is exactly as you have written it above? I just downloaded it and mine reads: read $fh, my $old, $readsize; Notice the my infront of old and no i at the end of $readsize. I wonder if someone was hacking what they shouldn't have been. In anycase, if you are confident the problem is with v.095 let Dominus know, but be sure to include a test case he can reproduce. Cheers - L~R	[reply]

L~R, You seem to have a point... i have no idea how this happened, but apparently the File.pm in my libs was/got corrupted. I'm not the only one on the server, but the list is extra-short, so i know where to look... ;-) I've deleted and restored, and now v0.95 works peachy, both with the test case and my original CGI script (which was unchanged). Anyhow, thanks again for your help/attention! It makes me glad to know that there wasn't/isn't a 'real' issue with Tie::File.	[reply]
