Monks,
Need help where my perl script stops writing data to a file.
Script splits a 700 MB into a file of 30K lines each into a directory.
Files in the directory are read one after another , each line in each file is processed , converted and outputed to another file which is approximately 13MB size. (reason:13 MB file is inputted to a system which works optimally @ 13 MB Size).
Script stops processing after 138 files, specifically fails when
print FileHndlr, $formattedline
print FileHndlr , $formattedline or warn 'unable to write!';
fails after 138th file. based on feedback from perl tutorials , $!++ was done before the while in order to do autoflush
always fails @ 138 * 13 MB each.
Please advice on how i should approach this issue and how to resolve this.
my script looks something like
$|+;;
my @InpFiles = glob (*.dat");
foreach my $inpfile (@InpFiles) {
my $outfilename;
my $outputfile = "";
open(HNDL, "$inpfile");
open $outfilename, ">", $outputfile;
$|++;
while(my $tmpline = <HNDL>){
print $outputfile "$parsedstring\n" or warn 'couldnot writ
+e to file';
print $outputfile "$parsedsecondstring\n" or warn 'couldno
+t write to file';
}
}
$|++;
close( HNDL );
close( $outfilename );
undef $outfilename;
}
