I am trying to copy files from one directory to another and getting the following error. undefined subroutine &main::Copy called at copy.pl line 11. using strict gives me this..for each variable I have.. global symbol $_ requires explicit package name @ line number..
use File::Copy; use strict; use warnings; $dirpath="C:\\inetpub\\performancetesting\\output\\new\\mlx\\aar"; $dirpath2="c:\\temp"; opendir(IN,"$dirpath") or die "opening directory failed:$!"; while (defined ($file = readdir(IN)) ) { @files=split / /,$file; foreach $filename (@files) { Copy (INPUT, "$dirpath".$filename, "$dirpath2".$filename) or warn "Can +'t open the file yet $filename\n:$!"; until (eof(INPUT)) { chomp($line = <INPUT>); # print contents of the file or do anything print "$line"; } } } closedir(IN);
