Re^8: reading file names to an array from the directory tree

Am I right that it may filter out "." and ".." files?
However, when I did

my @files = File::Find::Rule
                                  ->name( '*' )
                            ->in( @subdirs );
[download]

there was no "." and ".." files. So how they were filtered out?

It makes no sense to include "." and ".." — they would be redundant or outside the selected branch — so they are never included except "." if it was the provided path. `>perl -MFile::Find::Rule -E"say for File::Find::Rule->in('.')" . a b bar bar/bar foo foo/foo >perl -MFile::Find::Rule -E"say for File::Find::Rule->file->in('.')" a b bar/bar foo/foo` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
