Hey, I left this running all day, but for a file that is on a networked drive:
perl -e"open F, $ARGV[0] or die $!; while( 1 ){ print <F>; Win32::Slee
+p 1 }" f:\dev1\Logfile\Background1_08-Oct-2003-12-07-35.log
During the day the network fouled and the drives needed to be reconnected, but the program never stopped. It just hung.
So my question is, in this case, how would you know if the filehandle was still open and connected to the file?

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).
