in thread comparing 2 file time date stamps

I tried
use File::stat; use Time::localtime; $dd[11] = ctime(stat("$xxfn1")->mtime); $dd[12] = ctime(stat("$xxfn2")->mtime);
The result was for both files

Mon Nov 3 11:57:55 2014

which is the stamp of the file not in the staging directory.

All methods seem to return the same modification date for both files, even though the file dates are 11/3 and 11/2, respectively.

    I tried ... stuff I did not recommend

    Sorry dude :) Time::Piece is the core module with the neato API that stop you from having to do + 1900 nonsense ...

    $ perl -e " use Time::Piece; print localtime->year,$/ " 2014
