Re: Another Windows Mapping Question

Evadently, there is problem copying file from a UNC path.

I don't see how it's evident, or even true.

C:\>md foo

C:\>md bar

C:\>copy nul foo\file
        1 file(s) copied.

C:\>perl -MFile::Copy -e"copy @ARGV" \\127.0.0.1\c$\foo\file \\127.0.0
+.1\c$\bar"

C:\>dir /b bar
file
[download]

How would it look in the actual script?	[reply]

`#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use File::Copy qw( copy ); copy $ARGV[0], $ARGV[1];` [download] It needs error checking. If you need to hardcode a UNC path, you can either properly escape backslashes `my $path = '\\\\server\\share\\dir\\file';` [download] or simply use forward slashes. `my $path = '//server/share/dir/file';` [download] `open` has no problem with either.

Thank you for your help. Could I use this to use a File::Glow on that as well?	[reply]
