PERL Script

[Ricky B. Nino]

Hi,

How can I receive parameter values in a PERL Script.

Appreciate a very simple script...

Thanks.

I did'nt got your requirement. What you exactly want to print?.

If you want to print the value of a variable you can use the print $var.

Pls be specific.

Srini.

#!/usr/contrib/bin/perl
#
#
$DataFileName = $ARGV[0];
$searchstr = $ARGV[1];
$valuestr = $ARGV[2];
print "filename is >>".$ARGV[0]."<< searchstr is >>".$ARGV[1]."<<\n";
print "====================\n";

Hi Harry,

Many thanks for a very straight and simple example.

For the PERL beginners like me may also want to take a look at this...

Thanks and best regards...

Hi Ricky,

That link you suggested doesn't seem to work, it returns:

"URL not found

The URL you requested does not exist on the Computer Science server.

Requested address was /Dave/PERL/perl_caller.html. on server www.cs.cf.ac.uk. "

Do you know what it should be ?

Rob.

Sorry about the extra '.' at the end...
