That is almost always a bad idea. See
<URL:http://www.plover.com/~mjd/perl/varvarname.html>
for an anecdote about what can go wrong.
As others in this thread have pointed out, you should probably use a
hash instead:
# read the contents of the file into the variable `%array'.
while (<>) {
my ($varname, @values) = split;
$array{$varname} = \@values;
}
...
@some_array = @{$array{'var_name_1'}};
print "@{$array{'var_name_2'}}\n";
# etc.

Maybe you should read the documentation of the modules you want to use:
# perldoc Mail::POP3Client
[snip]
Delete Mark the specified message number as DELETED.
Becomes effective upon QUIT. Can be reset with a
Reset message.
[snip]
Is that what you want?
Please, read the documentation.

If you save each page as 'page1.html' and 'page2.html'.
<P>Then insert an anchor command into 'page1.html' where

<P>IE:

Great? not really.
Did you notice that the original poster was talking about locking the
file? Did you notice that that great code you submitted doesn't do
anything like that at all?

1. Did you remember to say
use Fcntl;
? Otherwise, O_RDWR will be undefined, it'll be taken to be 0, and
that means you opened the file for reading only.
2. You code doesn't check to see if the `open' or `flock' succeeded.
Perhaps you don't have permission to open the file? Perhaps the file
doesn't exist? All this is consistent with the error you got.
Rewrite it like this:
sub get_and_update_rfp_counter {
sysopen(FH, "rfp_counter", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0644)
or die "Couldn't open rfp_counter: $!; aborting";
flock(FH, 2);
or die "Couldn't lock rfp_counter: $!; aborting";
my $count = <FH> || 0;
seek(FH, 0, 0);
truncate(FH, 0);
print FH $count+1, "\n";
close FH;
$form{'serial_no'} = "E-".substr($count, 0, -1);
}
Depending on the application, you may want to replace `die' with some
other function that delivers a diagnostic message to the appropriate place.
>PS What does <FILEHANDLE> mean (can't find it anywhere)?
It reads a line of data from the specified filehandle.

note that your script must still return a valid HTTP header, as

Message-Id: <Pine.SGI.4.03.9809301937060.26298-100000@surfer.sdsc.edu>
Hi,
I am trying to make use of a C++ library within perl via xs. While
I have everything working nicely as it should on a Sun, I have labored now
for hours to port the same to an SGI (I know it's possible, I did it once
but the approach does not work anymore). Basically, everything compiles
as it should but my perl test script dumps core or produces gibberish that
looks like there is a memory problem.
I am not including any code as the C++ library is somewhat extensive and
without it, the *.xs files do not make much sense. They are almost pure
C++ code anyways with just the bare bones xs definitions of the classes
and their methods.
Here are my questions, any input or pointers would be highly appreciated
(I HAVE looked at the FAQ, Deja Vu and Hotbot/Alta-Vista!!):
* Could my problems stem from the fact that I am using a perl executable
which was compiled for IP19-IRIX on an IP32-IRIX box? I am asking this
because the .so files compiled for IP27-IRIX do not work for IP19-IRIX:
----
Can't load '<path>/lib/perl5/site_perl/IP19-irix/auto/POM/Info/Info.so'
for module POM::Info: 21452:/usr/local/bin/perl: rld: Fatal Error:
unresolvable symbol in
<path>/lib/perl5/site_perl/IP19-irix/auto/POM/Info/Info.so: Perl_sv_undef
at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.00502/IP19-irix/DynaLoader.pm line 168.
----
* Is the perlobject.map file different between different perl5
executables?
* Why is this soooo hard??? (I fought through all the '-n32' vs '-o32'
crap to get the stuff to compile, running into copious 'ld32: WARNING 84'
errors in the process; None of these errors show up during compilation
now, which (mis)leads me to think that I solved *those*)
again, thanks for any input!
here are platform and perl version details:
perl -v => 5.005_02 built for IP19-irix
uname -a => IRIX wormhole 6.3 12161207 IP32 (this is where I need it to
work)
cheers,
h.
PS: e-mail copy of postings would be dandy!! :))

If you are using a real o/s then you can pipe it to the "fmt" command.

Subject: Special: Digest Administrivia (Last modified: 12 Mar 98)
Message-Id: <null>
Administrivia:
Special notice: in a few days, the new group comp.lang.perl.moderated
should be formed. I would rather not support two different groups, and I
know of no other plans to create a digested moderated group. This leaves
me with two options: 1) keep on with this group 2) change to the
moderated one.
If you have opinions on this, send them to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc. For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:
subscribe perl-users
or:
unsubscribe perl-users
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.misc (and this Digest), send your
article to perl-users@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.
To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.
The Meta-FAQ, an article containing information about the FAQ, is
available by requesting "send perl-users meta-faq". The real FAQ, as it
appeared last in the newsgroup, can be retrieved with the request "send
perl-users FAQ". Due to their sizes, neither the Meta-FAQ nor the FAQ
are included in the digest.
The "mini-FAQ", which is an updated version of the Meta-FAQ, is
available by requesting "send perl-users mini-faq". It appears twice
weekly in the group, but is not distributed in the digest.
For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
