Log maintain in Perl
hi ,

While working on perl, have to write a continuous log file which I can monitor. I tried like,

Code:
open (LOG,'>'.$log.'/Report_'.$todaysdate.'.log') or die("Unable to create the log file");

print LOG "\nDate : ".`date`;

But when I ran the script in backend and monitor log, it generates after all script ends and not before that.


can anyone help please

You can create a file object and can use anywhere.

try:

Code:
my $FOBJ = new FileHandle "> $log";
code line 1;
print $FOBJ "log msg 1";
code line 2;
code line3;
print $FOBJ "log msg 2";
code line 4;
code line 5;

You don't need to close the file also.
