$twig->flush causing output to stdout?

[Joe.Orcino]

Having trouble with XML::Twig when used in a loop. Here is my code:

sub twig {                                                            
+  # use twig to manipulate elements
      my $infile = shift ;
      my $processed = FALSE ;
      our $twigObject = XML::Twig->new (
             twig_handlers     => {
                                   'TABLE' => \&get_tab,
                         'CTOC-ChapterTOC' => \&del_chaptoc,
                     'CTOC-ChapterTOCList' => \&del_chaptoc,
                    'STOC-SectionTitleTOC' => \&del_chaptoc,
             },
                  keep_atts_order => 1,
                    keep_encoding => 1,
                    pretty_print  => "indented",
      ) ;
      my $logname = LOGD . "/conv_logfile.txt" ;
      open(LOG, ">> $logname" ) || die(
           "Can't open \'$logname\'.\nStopped " );
      $twigObject->parsefile_inplace($infile, '.bak') || die(
          "WTF!! Something went wrong with the 'parse' " .
          "of \'$infile\'.\nStopped $!\n") ;
      $twigObject->flush() ;                                          
+  # output back to original XML after Mods
      undef($twigObject) ;
      close(\*LOG) ;
      return(0) ;                                                     
+  # back to main
}

It seems to work fine except when sent a 2nd filename, the output suddenly goes to STDOUT instead of the $infile. Any ideas what is happening here, Mirod?

When subroutine call contains a second filename? Or when subroutine is called 2nd time?

[Joe.Orcino]

Sorry that wasn't clear; I meant it does this when I call this as a subroutine a second time (specifying a new filename).

Then this s dependant on how you called the subroutine, especially in which way you specified the new filename. You should show us that code as well.

2nd filename?

Where in the code you posted is this second filename?
