Re^9: Spot the bug

You missed the point. If you have two subs that open file handles on a the same file they don't need to worry about each other. If however you have two subs that 'open' an each on the same hash, you are in serious trouble. I couldn't realy quoute you numbers on the use of either, but filehandles are certainly very different than each.

No, I'm not missing the point. Unlike you, I was talking about filehandles, not files. Sure, you can open more than one handle on a file, but filehandles are used for more than files. Sockets and STDIN for instance. `Perl --((8:>*`	[reply]

Unlike you, I was talking about filehandles, not files. Well, you are playing semantic games. If you mean streams or sockets then talk about streams or sockets. --- $world=~s/war/peace/g	[reply]
