Re: LWP file transfer running out ot memory on a whopping big file

[gav^]

If you type perldoc lwpcook or go here you will find loads LWP examples including one about handling large documents.

A quick copy paste is:

  use LWP::UserAgent;
  $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
  my $req = HTTP::Request->new(GET =>
                'http://www.linpro.no/lwp/libwww-perl-5.46.tar.gz');
  $res = $ua->request($req, "libwww-perl.tar.gz");
  if ($res->is_success) {
     print "ok\n";
  }
  else {
     print $res->status_line, "\n";
  }
