"-d" works , but the script i am using , it picks up the parent directory too.
So it moves F:\test itself into the destination directory
but i want only the directories within F:\test and
and older than 10 days to be moved to F:\old
SCRIPT is below :-
use File::stat;
use Time::localtime;
use File::Find;
my @files = ();
my @paths = ();
my $dir = 'F:\\test';
print "Dir - $dir \n";
find(\&_filewanted, $dir);
if (@dirs < 1) {
print "\n There are no files older than 10 days \n";
} else {
print "\nThe Following files are older than 10 days and are
being moved\n";
for my $file ( @dirs ) {
$file =~ s/\//\\/;
print " FILE NAME : $file\n";
system("move $file F:\\old");
print "Moved $file to F:\\old\n";
}
}
print "\n";
sub _filewanted {
if ( ((-M $_) > 10) && -d $_ ) { # directories not files
push @dirs, $File::Find::name;
}
}
