Hi I have a public disk partition shared by different users. Everyone on the host writes different temporary file from time to time. So the partition runs out of available disk space sometimes.
I have a perl script to write some data to a file in this partition everyday. In several cases, the data is incomplete due to disk-full issue and i want to detect this error. I use 'print HANDLE $data' to write the data. CPAN says if the function 'print' runs successfully, the return value is true. However, it seems that no matter the data is fully written to the file, 'print' always returns true. Now I have resolved the problem by replacing function 'print' with 'syswrite'. But I wonder is function 'print' really so unfriendly to raise IO error? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
