Hi
The "8.1.8" =~ /[\d $versao \s]/ will always return true because the square
parenthesis ([]) matches the string against one of the chars inside. In this
case the \d (digit) matches because you have a digit inside.
In your code you wrote "8.1.8" =~ /$version/. This takes the $version a treat
it as a regular expression.
I don't think that this is what you want. You actually want something like
$version =~ /8\.1\.8/.

Subject: Using regular expressions with delimitaters
Hello,
I need to use the delimiter " " , (one blank space).
I read perdoc, i try to use this :
if ( "8.1.8" =~ /[\d $versao \s]/)
But the expression is always true.
Where is the error ?
my code :
#!/usr/bin/perl
$version=`/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl --version`;
print $version;
if ( "8.1.8" =~ /$version/)
{
print "$version\n";
}
else
{
print "Wrong version !\n";
}
Output, about program:
pg_ctl (PostgreSQL) 8.1.8
Wrong version
Best regards,
Rodrigo Faria
