Fellow Perl neophytes ( and non-neophytes), I need a little clarification. I am trying to remove files that are greater that 24 hours old. The code snippet below is in a 'while' loop that steps through a directory, yet it seems not to work - no files are removed no matter what their 'age' ( i.e., their creation time ). I have stepped through the code via the Perl debugger and know the code is being executed.
unlink $file unless -C $file < 1; Another question - is the creation time of a file 'updated' whenever a 'write' to the file is performed or does the creation time remain static? I need a way to delete files based on the file creation time and that time needs to be static. One last - unrelated - query: Does anyone know of a Oracle PL/SQL mailing list ( e.g., [EMAIL PROTECTED] )?
