I am opening a log file:
open( LOGFILE, ">>cronlog.txt" );
This is being written to in lots of places.
I have been asked to change the program so if -m (manual) flag is
passed the stuff that goes to the log file is send to standard out
instead. Is it possible to change the above command to redirect
LOGFILE to STDOUT (i.e. make the two the same thing.
i.e.
if ( defined( $opt_m ) ) {
open( LOGFILE, STDOUT );
} else {
open( LOGFILE, ">>cronlog.txt" );
}
I even tried:
LOGFILE = STDOUT;
But I get:
Bareword "STDOUT" not allowed while "strict subs" in use
Whjenever I try to use STDOUT;(
Any ideas?
