Ten years passed, we still are very interested in this problem, I got some code to get the total number of files under a directory, sub directory is also included.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my $location = "the path of directory you want to process"; #root dir
+ectory
my $n = 0;
readsub($location);
print "Found $n file(s)!\n"; #print the total number of files you fo
+und
exit;
sub readsub {
my ($file_t) = @_;
if (-f $file_t) { #if its a file
$n++; #the total number of files
}
if (-d $file_t) { #if its a directory
opendir(AA,$file_t) || return;
my @list = readdir(AA);
closedir (AA);
my $file_to_act;
foreach $file_to_act (sort @list) {
if ($file_to_act =~ /^\.|\.$/) { next; }
else { readsub("$file_t/$file_to_act"); }
}
}
}
Enjoy!

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).
