$i was being clobbered as psini pointed out but this was only one major problem. The second problem is that your filehandle 'DIR' is getting clobbered. I think that the program still is not working correctly. To demonstrate:
open FH, "<foobar" or die;
my @stats = stat FH;
print "First inode ", $stats[1], "\n";
{
open FH, "<foo" or die;
my @stats = stat FH;
print "Second inode ", $stats[1], "\n";
}
@stats = stat FH;
print "First inode ", $stats[1], "\n"; # FH has been clobbered.
__END__
....
First inode 683751
Second inode 684162
First inode 684162

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).
