Hello RichardK.
glob fails silently as QM saids with my perl. How does this code say with your platform?
for (my $q =1; $q < 10000; $q++){
my @x = ( 'A' x $q, 'B' x $q );
my $glob = '{' . join(',', @x) . '}';
my $g = join(',', glob($glob));
if (length $g == 0){
print "fail silently, q=$q\n";
last;
}
}
Mine stops saying
fail silently, q=511
perl -v
This is perl 5, version 12, subversion 2 (v5.12.2) built for i386-freebsd-thread-multi-64int
regards.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
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).

are good places to start.
