Last Question :-) I open file to read and should retrevie all the lines start with " SOURCE=.\" as display below: 
SOURCE=.\ApplicationObject.cpp
SOURCE=.\BusinessObject.cpp
SOURCE=.\ClientObject.cpp
SOURCE=.\ComponentServer.cpp
SOURCE=.\main.cpp
SOURCE=.\posix_timer.cpp
SOURCE=.\ServiceServer.cpp
SOURCE=.\SystemObject.cpp
SOURCE=.\TestProgram.cpp
SOURCE=.\workflow.cpp

[download]

I need to initialize variable only with the file name, so finally I should have:
$fileLst=" ApplicationObject.cpp BusinessObject.cpp ClientObject.cpp ComponentServer.cpp" My current code is: 
foreach my $line (<MAKFILE>) {
         chomp $line;
        if ($line =~ m/SOURCE=\.\\(.*)$/i) {
            push @fileLst, $1;
        }
    } 
    close MAKFILE;
    
    $fileLst = join " ", @fileLst;
    return $fileLst;

[download]

The final result includes garbage: "workflow.cppcppppppp".
Please advice. Thanks.
