Hello:
I have a question about this piece of code (I know is the same as my last post):

   $self->{ftp}->put($origin, $target) or
          $msg = $self->{ftp}->message(),
          $cod = $self->{ftp}->code(),
          print ("$cod: $msg\n"),
          return 1;

-- EDIT: Sorry there is a mistake on the print intruction. I am adding the parenthesis, in the real code it calls a function.--

I just want to know if the way I handle the error is correct. After thte "or" I separate the instructions with ","; I have been told that this is a risky practice. I just want to know if this is really a risky practice or is ok to use the "," as separators.

In case there is a better less risky way, what would be that way?.


Thank you very much,
