been really struggling here.... probably a dumb approach

so I have 3 files, file1,file2,file3 generated by filehandles over ssh. File are written on local machine and contain CSV data coming from 6 nodes (need to stay like this). My script works but I am trying to optimize with a foreach loop on each of the files rather than hard coded for each.

so I have this array:
@FILES = ( 1, 2, 3 ); foreach $FILE (@FILES) { # Open filehandle tailing file written by ssh<br><br> open ( ${fh.$FILE}, "tail -f file$FILE |") || die "can't open file$ +FILE"; while ( ${line.$FILE} = ${fh.$FILE} ) { # Here I do my split on the CSV line and assign to arrays (keepi +ng the # $FILE value as a suffix to the array name)<br><br> @{fields.$FILE} = split(/,/,${line.$FILE}); push @{AAA.$FILE}, ${fields.$FILE[0]}; # .....

The issue I have is that ${line.$FILE} does not seem to be filled by the filehandle, I get the mem address (GLOB(0x563b358e1060) for example).

any help greatly appreciated!
