I have a bunch of files saved with CGI.pm's built-in "save" function. Here's an example of what's in a file:
Name=Lincoln Stein Home=/u/bush202/lds32 Organization=Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Login=lds32 Password_age=20 Password_expires=60 = I want to do some searches on the those files and Boulder.pm looks like it might help do exactly what I want, but I'm stumped with the example Dr.Stein provides (http://stein.cshl.org/software/boulder/docs/Boulder.html): # Read a series of People records from STDIN. # Add an "Eligibility" attribute to all those whose # Age >= 35 and Friends list includes "Fred" use Boulder::Stream; my $stream = Boulder::Stream->newFh; while ( my $record = <$stream> ) { next unless $record->Age >= 35; my @friends = $record->Friends; next unless grep {$_ eq 'Fred'} @friends; $record->insert(Eligibility => 'yes'); print $stream $record; } I'm not using this is a shell script, it's a CGI script, so what I want to do is send the routine in the example a path to a directory of files I'd like it to search through. But I don't know how to do that, I've tried a few different things, like, open(newFh, "data.txt") or die "couldn't open data.txt : $!"; my $stream = Boulder::Stream->newFh; But I get this error: Name "main::newFh" used only once: possible typo I'm just not getting anywhere. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
