Hello All,
Hello,
Can someone tell me the proper syntax to print out the value in a
reference?
I assume you mean how to dereference a reference?
perldoc perlref
Thank you.,,
my $string = '';
open my $scalar_fh, '>>', \$string;
my $log_message = "here is my string...";
print $scalar_fh $log_message;
foreach my $fh ($scalar_fh ) {
print "$fh";
$scalar_fh is a filehandle and you are converting it to a string.
Perhaps you just wanted to print the contents of $string?
print $string;
}
