PERL String to Date (Custom format yyyymmdd to dd-mon-yyyy)
Hi All,
I am learning PERL for one of the projects, and in one of these scripts, I read a flat text file and print in the terminal.
The problem is, the text file has a date field. The format is yyyymmdd. I need to display this as dd-mon-yyyy.
Any ideas to do this? Thanks a lot for the help.
Regards
Guru

Note: I wrongly tagged this as PERL DATE::MANIP. Looks like I need to download and use this. Is it not included in standard distribution. If not, I can't use it to.

asp-perl
ASP-PERL(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation ASP-PERL(1p)
NAME
asp-perl - Apache::ASP CGI and command line script processor
SYNOPSIS
asp-perl [-hsdb] [-f asp.conf] [-o directory] file1 @arguments file2 @arguments ...
-h Help you are getting now!
-f Specify an alternate configuration file other than ./asp.conf
-s Setup $Session and $Application state for script.
-d Set to debug code upon errors.
-b Only return body of document, no headers.
-o Output directory, writes to files there instead of STDOUT
-p GlobalPackage config, what perl package are the scripts compiled in.
DESCRIPTION
This program will run Apache::ASP scripts from the command line. Each file that is specified will be run, and the $Request->QueryString()
and $Request->Form() data will be initialized by the @arguments following the script file name.
The @arguments will be written as space separated words, and will be initialized as an associate array where %arguments = @arguments. As
an example:
asp-perl file.asp key1 value1 key2 value2
would be similar to calling the file.asp in a web environment like
/file.asp?key1=value1&key2=value2
The asp.conf script will be read from the current directory for parameters that would be set with PerlSetVar normally under mod_perl. For
more information on how to configure the asp.conf file, please see < http://www.apache-asp.org/cgi.html >
