redefine warning(Eval) in perl
Here is my perl Program:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

my $a="sam";
my $b="ste";
my $c="abcdef";
my $d=931;

$str="
@<<<<< @>>>>>>>>>> @|||||||||||||||||||| @#########
\$a,\$b,\$c,\$d
.";

open(FILE,">abc.txt");

$temp="format FILE = $str";
eval $temp;
write FILE;
print FILE "\n\n";

close(FILE);

$str="
@<<<<< @>>>>>>>>>>
\$a,\$b
.";

$a="Sum";
$b="Ste";

open(FILE,">>abc.txt");

$temp="format FILE = $str";
eval $temp;

write FILE;
close(FILE);

When i execute this program i get "Format FILE redefined at (eval 2) line 1." warning message. Could anybody explain why i get this warning and how to do away with this. Output of the program is although, correct.

apple_dump

APPLE_DUMP(1)							   Netatalk 2.2 						     APPLE_DUMP(1)

NAME

       apple_dump - Dump AppleSingle/AppleDouble format file

SYNOPSIS

       apple_dump [-a] FILE | DIR
							  apple_dump -f FILE
							  apple_dump -d FILE
							  apple_dump -h | -help | --help
							  apple_dump -v | -version | --version

DESCRIPTION

       apple_dump dump AppleSingle/AppleDouble format file.

OPTIONS

       -a FILE|DIR
	   This is default. Dump a AppleSingle/AppleDouble file for FILE or DIR automatically. Extrapolate FinderInfo type from absolute path. If
	   FILE is not AppleSingle/AppleDouble format, look for .AppleDouble/FILE and ._FILE. If DIR, look for DIR/.AppleDouble/.Parent and ._DIR.

       -f FILE
	   Dump FILE. Assume FinderInfo to be FileInfo.

       -d FILE
	   Dump FILE. Assume FinderInfo to be DirInfo.

       -h, -help, --help
	   Display the help and exit

       -v, -version, --version
	   Show version and exit

NOTE

       There is no way to detect whether FinderInfo is FileInfo or DirInfo. By default, apple_dump examins whether file or directory, a parent
       directory is .AppleDouble, filename is ._*, filename is .Parent, and so on.

       If setting option -f or -d, assume FinderInfo and doesn't look for another file.
