Dear All,
I have a perl script that runs nightly. It create a data feed. The script will
die if the is a + sign in the fields its parsing.
Here is the snippet:
while (($PKEY, $MGMTCMNT, $manager_id, $MGMTNM, $UPDATE1, $UPDATE2) =
$sth->fetchrow_array) {
$comment = "";
if ($MGMTCMNT =~ /$MGMTNM/) {
$len = length($MGMTNM);
$start = index($MGMTCMNT, "$MGMTNM (");
$start += $len + 2;
$end = index($MGMTCMNT, ")", $start) - $start;
$comment = substr($MGMTCMNT, $start, $end);
}
if ($UPDATE1 > $artisttime || $UPDATE2 > $artisttime ) {
print (ARTMGRFILE "$PKEY\t$manager_id\t$comment\n");
}
}
Here is the error message:
Quantifier follows nothing in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/+ <-- HERE 1
Public Relations/ at /srv/www/htdocs/admin/utilities/aeg/manart.pl line 102.
In this error the problem file had the text "+1 Public Relations";
Is there a way to escape this character so in the future it won't kill the
script?
Thank you,
