I wrote a perl script that does some basic file operations, in this case moving files around based on their creation date.
I have a large folder with 60,000+ files inside, and when I run this particular Perl script, it exits without any output and no errors.
Is there a memory limit or something I could be running into?
Heres a snippet:
for my $file (<*.txt>)
{
$count = $count + 1;
my ($name,$path,$suffix) = fileparse($file,"\.txt") ;
my $info = stat($file);
my $datestamp = strftime(".%Y%m%d", localtime($info->mtime));
my $datestamp2 = strftime("%Y%m%d", localtime($info->mtime));
#print "\nMaking Directory if it doesnt exist: $dst2\\$datestamp2"
+;
mkdir "$dst2\\$datestamp2" or "Error making Directory\n";
print "\n Moving \"$file\" to >> $dst2\\$datestamp2\n";
move $file,"$dst2\\$datestamp2\\$name$suffix" or warn "Cannot copy
+ $file $!\n" ;
if($count > $limit)
{exit;}
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
