I'm trying to write a script that will look in an /exports folder for the oldest export file and move it to a /staging folder. "Oldest" in this case is actually determined by date information embedded in the file names themselves.
Also, the script should only move a file from /exports to... (6 Replies)

NAME
perldelta - what is new for perl v5.8.1
DESCRIPTION
This document describes differences between the 5.8.0 release and the 5.8.1 release.
Incompatible Changes
Core Enhancements
Tied Arrays with Negative Array Indices
Formerly, the indices passed to "FETCH", "STORE", "EXISTS", and "DELETE" methods in tied array class were always non-negative. If the
actual argument was negative, Perl would call FETCHSIZE implicitly and add the result to the index before passing the result to the tied
array method. This behavior is now optional. If the tied array class contains a package variable named $NEGATIVE_INDICES which is set to
a true value, negative values will be passed to "FETCH", "STORE", "EXISTS", and "DELETE" unchanged.
Warnings
Perl 5.8.0 forgot to add some deprecation warnings. These warnings have now been added.
Pseudo-hashes really are deprecated
Pseudo-hashes were deprecated in Perl 5.8.0 and will be removed in Perl 5.10.0, see perl58delta for details. Each attempt to access
pseudo-hashes will trigger the warning "Pseudo-hashes are deprecated". If you really want to continue using pseudo-hashes but not to see
the deprecation warnings, add:
no warnings 'deprecated';
5.005-style threads really are deprecated
5.005-style threads (activated by "use Thread;") were deprecated in Perl 5.8.0 and will be removed in Perl 5.10.0, see perl58delta for
details. Each attempt to create a 5.005-style thread will trigger the warning "5.005 threads are deprecated". If you really want to con-
tinue using 5.005 threads but not to see the deprecation warnings, add:
no warnings 'deprecated';

database at http://bugs.perl.org/ . There may also be information at http://www.perl.com/ , the Perl Home Page.
If you believe you have an unreported bug, please run the perlbug program included with your release. Be sure to trim your bug down to a
tiny but sufficient test case. Your bug report, along with the output of "perl -V", will be sent off to perlbug@perl.org to be analysed by
the Perl porting team.
