another thing. if you do not need STDERR you can do a dirty trick! ;)
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use warnings; if ( $^O =~ /^(MS)?Win/ ) { eval { #dirty hack to avoid the warning close STDERR; require Win32::DriveInfo; my $TotalNumberOfFreeBytes = (Win32::DriveInfo::DriveSpace('c: +'))[6]; my $TotalNumberOfBytes = (Win32::DriveInfo::DriveSpace('c:'))[ +5]; print "This is $^O \n"; print "Total Free: $TotalNumberOfFreeBytes\tTotal size: $Total +NumberOfBytes\n"; }; print $@, "\ndone!"; } elsif ( $^O =~ /^linux/ ) { print "This is Linux OS!!!\n"; }

    close(STDERR) affects the whole program. There are better ways of suppressing warnings: (best to worse)

    • { no warnings 'warningtype'; ... } (Compile- and run-time, specific)
    • { no warnings; ... } (Compile- and run-time, broad)
    • { local $SIG{__WARN__} = {}; ... } (Run-time, broad)
    • { local *STDERR; ... } (Run-time, broad, has side effects.)

    And you're only hiding the symptom, not fixing the problem. Like the warning says, a piece of code that should get executed is not getting executed.




      Thanks all the Perl senior!!!! (^o^)...
