Dear all: I try to compare 2 files line by line. I use tie::file to save 2 files as array and compare them one line by one line. the perl is like below:
tie my @src_file1,'Tie::File', $src_file1, mode => O_RDWR ,autochomp => 1 or die "cannot open file $!"; tie my @src_file2,'Tie::File', $src_file2, mode => O_RDWR ,autochomp => 1 or die "cannot open file $!"; for(my $index=0; $index <= $#src_file1;$index++) { if($src_file1[$index] != $src_file2[$index]) { printf "The 2 files are different\n"; exit; } } But I find the process is pretty long. Both files are about 10MB. Is there any quicker way to do the same thing above? appreciate your help, miloody -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
