perlquestion diamondsandperls I am having problems i need to do a traceroute until my regex match is met i understand how qx works but my research indicates that there is a way i can use open maybe to accomplish what i need to accomplish.<br> <br> <br> <code> #!perl use strict; use warnings; my $trace; my $ipaddy = "8.8.8.8"; #example do { $trace = qx{tracert $ipaddy}; until ($trace =~ /myhost/) } </code>
