Hi there,
Hello,
I am trying to figure out how to use grep in a particular situation. The line is: next unless grep ($fromdevice, @sitenamekeys); but I am not quite matching properly. @sitenamekeys = /ABC DEF GHI/; and $fromdevice could be something like "device1.abc" or "device2.def" basically I am trying to get the grep to identify if the current $fromdevice has anything that matching any of the elements in @sitenamekeys So "device1.abc" or "device2.def" would be a match and therefore would continue without next but something like "device1.xyz" would not match and therefore next would be executed.
next unless grep $fromdevice =~ /$_/, @sitenamekeys; John -- Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex...
