Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting [Perl] Accessing array elements within a sed command in Perl script Post 302242996 by otheus on Friday 3rd of October 2008 10:51:25 AM

First, why would you use such a sed script within Perl? But whatever. Second, the second back-ticked command, while functionally correct, is not as good or as clear as:
Code:
rename(0, ${test[$count]});

Third, the last one in the array never gets converted. That's because $#test is the last index in the array of @test, and you're telling the while loop to stop before count is equal to this.

Now to your actual question. I dont know. This worked when I ran sample code and on the files (except for the last). However, better code would be as follows:

Code:
for (@test)
{
        system("sed -i -e 's/BIOGRF  321/BIOGRF  332/g' $_");
}

wibble-test-genrunner(1)				      General Commands Manual					  wibble-test-genrunner(1)

NAME
wibble-test-genrunner - Code generator for wibble testsuites. SYNOPSIS
wibble-test-genrunner header <file> wibble-test-genrunner main <files> DESCRIPTION
The program generates .cpp files that are then compiled and linked into a test program for running tests from .test.h files. Examples of such .test.h files may be found among wibble headers, eg. /usr/include/wibble/regexp.test.h. In the first form, the program processes a single header file (usually of the form foo.test.h) and produces a corresponding .cpp file to be compiled. In the second form, it takes as <files> all the .test.h headers and produces a single main.cpp which contains the main() function of the test program, which then runs all the tests in all the .test.h files. The generated source code is always written to standard output and it is left up to the user to redirect it to a meaningful location. The program currently has no options other than the two forms above. The program is intended to be run as part of build process of programs or libraries using the wibble testing framework. For convenient use from CMake, there is a test.cmake script under /usr/share/wibble, that takes care of producing all the .cpp files (both per-header and the main one), compiling them and linking them into a single binary which executes the testsuite.
