hi jhon,
If I use use opendir/readdir I am getting the default directories . and ..
into the directoy handle.
Is there any way tha i could eliminate this.
For example if i want to copy all contentents of the directory(including
sub directories)
I open a directory Handle using opendir and read it usign readdir, Now my
dirhandle contains default directories . and .. which i cannot copy.
Is there any way that i can elimate the default directories . and .. while
reading the direcotry from a directory handle.
Thanks
Siva
If you want the contents of a directory and all its sub-directories, you should
use File::Find It's simple to use and it takes care of some problems like
cyclic symbolic links. (And I hope you're using File::Copy to copy the files.)
