I should have mentioned that I tried IO::Scalar. The following code causes a page fault in perl56.dll.
use IO::Scalar;
print "Trying ioscalar...\n";
my $io = ioscalar();
print "Finished with ioscalar.\n";
print $io;
print "Testing STDERR...\n";
print STDERR "(STDERR) can you hear me now?\n";
sub ioscalar {
my $data;
*oldfh = select STDERR; # save STDERR
print "STDERR saved.\n";
my $SH = new IO::Scalar \$data;
print "\$SH created.\n";
open(STDERR, '>', $SH) || die "Can't redirect STDERR to the IO::Scal
+ar, $!";
print "STDERR redirected to \$SH\n";
select(STDERR); $| = 1;
print STDERR "ioscalar says 'hi'\n";
close(STDERR);
open(STDERR, ">&oldfh"); # restore STDERR
select(STDOUT);
return $data;
}
__DATA__
Trying ioscalar...
STDERR saved.
$SH created.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
