( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Hi, I have coded a find call with 2 different subroutines being called to do two different things. However, my observation is that, the first find call with its associated sub works just fine. But when find is called the second time with a different sub, still the first sub is actually being entered. Just wanted to know if there is any limitation on find and number of subs associated ? Else i'll debug my code.

Example representation of what i'm trying to do in my script

sub finda { print "In finda, $File:Find:name\n"; } sub findb { print "In findb, $File:Find:name\n"; } find (\&finda, "/abc/xyz"); find (\&findb, "/pqr");

Note : (Folder abc/xyz contains a file named file1, and folder pqr contains a file named file2)

Output:

Expected:

In finda, /abc/xyz/file1

In findb, /pqr/file2

Getting:

In finda, /abc/xyz/file1

In finda, /abc/xyz/file1

  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
