This is a part of a script that I basically cut, paste and changed for when it's looking for .run_sql files. the program basically scans a directory for all files extended with .run_sql or .run_ctl, and runs them accordingly. I just felt like posting this to see if anyone was looking for something to do.. :) I know I can use the oracle DBI for this, however it's not installed on the server, and I want to avoid having to involve the server admins. ....
my $workDir = "/workdir";
my $oraLogin = "user/password@database";
my @filesToLoad = ( { "FileName" => 'file1.dat', "FileLoc" => 'dir1'});
for (my $i=0; $i<scalar(@filesToLoad); $i++)
{
opendir CTLDIR $workDir/%{$fileToLoad$i}->{"FileLoc"};
my @ctlFiles = grep { /.run_ctl/i && -f $workingDir/$_} readdir(CTLDIR);
foreach(@ctlFiles)
{
system("sqlldr $oraLogin $workDir/%{$fileToLoad$i}->{\"FileLoc\"}/$_ rows=10000 errors=99999 $workDir/%{$fileToLoad$i}->{\"FileLoc\"}/sqlldr.log");
}
closedir CTLDIR;

opendir SQLDIR $workDir/%{$fileToLoad$i}->{"FileLoc"};
my @ctlFiles = grep { /.run_sql/i && -f $workingDir/$_} readdir(CTLDIR);
foreach(@ctlFiles)
{
system("sqlldr $oraLogin $workDir/%{$fileToLoad$i}->{\"FileLoc\"}/$_ rows=10000 errors=99999 $workDir/%{$fileToLoad$i}->{\"FileLoc\"}/sqlldr.log");
}
} ....
