yeah it should have had slashes thanks, now it does copy all the files in the dir, however I still get a cannot open the file yet but now its only happening twice, what is causing this error message is it trying to copy . and ..?
apparenty that is what its doing, how do I get rid of it..I tried this but it didn't work I know its only happening because of the warning, but I want to get rid of it as it isn't really an error.
not sure how to incorporate grep here..
use File::Copy;
#use strict;
my $dirpath="C:\\inetpub\\performancetesting\\output\\new\\mlx\\aar\\"
+;
my $dirpath2="c:\\temp\\";
opendir(IN,"$dirpath") or die "opening directory failed:$!";
while (defined (my $file = readdir(IN)) ) {
push (my @files, $file);
foreach my $filename (@files)
{
copy ("$dirpath".$filename, "$dirpath2".$filename) or warn "Can't open
+ the file yet $filename\n:$!";
need something like
my @files=grep { $_ ne '.' && $_ ne '..'}
}
}
closedir(IN);
