( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
According to perlopentut, "You don't have to accept the STDIN and STDOUT you were given. You are welcome to reopen them if you'd like."

Then the example given, modified to affect STDERR.....

open( STDERR, ">errors.log") or die "Cannot open error log.\n$!";

The tutorial also suggests that that it can be a clever thing to do to close the STD... filehandle on exit from the program, to force a flush.

END { close STDERR or die "Can't close STDERR.\n$!" }

In your case, you simply want to redirect STDERR to the OUTFILE file handle. Also listed in the tutorial, you may do this:

open (STDERR, ">>&OUTFILE") or die "Can't redirect STDERR.\n$!";

Hope this helps!

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
