PERL question
Could someone tell me what is wrong with these PERL statements
it is always setting the $status2 to the number inside of the brackets......why????????
if (/^Status:/)
{
$stat = $Fld[2];
print "\$stat is $stat\n";
}
the above is where i'm searching for a string inside of a file
if($stat == 'Sent')
{
$status2=2;
}
print "\$status2 is $status2\n";
if($stat == 'Send')
{
$status2=1;
}
print "\$status2 is $status2\n";

NAME
explain_stat_or_die - get file status and report errors
SYNOPSIS
#include <libexplain/stat.h>
void explain_stat_or_die(const char *pathname, struct stat *buf);
DESCRIPTION
The explain_stat_or_die function is used to call the stat(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained
from explain_stat(3), and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).
This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
explain_stat_or_die(pathname, buf);
pathname
The pathname, exactly as to be passed to the stat(2) system call.
buf The buf, exactly as to be passed to the stat(2) system call.
Returns:
This function only returns on success. On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
SEE ALSO
stat(2) get file status
explain_stat(3)
