The following code works
use Path::Tiny; my $dir = '//192.168.1.44/somedir'; my @files = path( $dir )->children( qr/\.txt\z/ ); #Excludes "." and " +.." automatically. my @myDirectories = path( $dir )->children; for my $dirName ( @myDirectories ){ print "$dirName\n"; }
However if I change the $dir as follows it does not work (I am aware technically //192.168.1.44 is not a directory but a share)
use Path::Tiny; my $dir = '//192.168.1.44'; # traverse root my @files = path( $dir )->children( qr/\.txt\z/ ); #Excludes "." and " +.." automatically. my @myDirectories = path( $dir )->children; for my $dirName ( @myDirectories ){ print "$dirName\n"; }
I get the following error when running the above code
Error opendir on '//192.168.1.44': Invalid argument at dir.pl line 44.
