RE: FileCache - use strict

[Cron, Daniel]

Thanks!

I'm not sure I understand, though.

I'm trying to write to file 'a01file' which is represented by file handle
$a01.
The info I'm trying to write is "XYZ\n".

I think your solution writes to standard out, not file a01file.
I'm probably still missing something.

Thanks again!

                The error is a bit misleading.  The problem is you need an
operator 
                between $ao1 and "XYZ\n".  Try:

                print $a01, "XYZ\n";

                or

                print $a01 . "XYZ\n";

                This should clear things up.  I don't know whay perl is
trying to do with it if you don't "use strict"...
