Laudetur, monks.
I'm using File::find to find certain files. The directory tree is huge, so I need to use the preprocess possibility. I'd like to filter out
  • All files that don't end with .log
  • All directories that have "advanced" in their names.
    • However, the preprocess returns everything, so obviously I'm doing something wrong. Please point out my mistakes. Thanks.
    Code part: 
    find ({ preprocess => \&preprocess, 
            wanted => \&wanted
        }, $mypath);
        
    sub preprocess {

        my @toreturn = ();
        if (-f && /\.log$/ ) {push (@toreturn, $_);}
        elsif (-d && /advanced/ ) {push (@toreturn, $_);}
        return @toreturn;
    }    
    sub wanted {
        if ($File::Find::dir =~ /$envName$/) {
        checkLastLine();
        }
        else {print "not same env: $File::Find::name\n";}
    }

    I'm too lazy to be proud of being impatient.
