In this case you will at some point have sent 2048000000 bytes. Then the
server will consider the input complete and send a reply.
Do you use HTTP/1.0 or HTTP/1.1? In HTTP/1.1, Transfer-Encoding: chunked
should work for requests (see RFC 2616).

Looking at that --
perl -wle '

q|y| =~ m/(x)/; print $1;'
x

It is not "some filehandle", it is STDIN. STDIN is supposed to be opened
for input, and some library function may break if STDIN is not opened
for input. It is also almost certainly a bug - how often do
intentionally open STDIN for output?
While this is easy to detect and warn about, STDIN is actually the most
harmless of the three standard file handles. The most dangerous is
STDERR, because perl itself and lots of library functions assume that
they can write anything to STDERR. If you have inadvertently reopened
STDERR as an output file, you may end up with a corrupted output (this
is especially dangerous for setuid programs, so Linux/glibc makes sure
that the first three file handles are always open before main is called
in this case).

No it's not.

What library? CRTL knows nothing about what Perl calls STDIN [*]. Perl
libraries know zilch about '&=0' (I did my `grep' ;-).
> It is also almost certainly a bug - how often do
> intentionally open STDIN for output?
Nobody opened STDIN for anything: input, or output.
Try:
perl -wle "close STDIN; open my $f, q(<), q(o) or die; print fileno $f; defined(my $x = <STDIN>) or die 11"
0
readline() on closed filehandle STDIN at -e line 1.
11 at -e line 1.
The message we are discussing is VERY misleading.
[*] Of course, if Perl is not compiled to use stdstdio, then CRTL's
stdin may be left "dangling" after close(STDIN). So it is
close(STDIN) which causes problems, not open()...
Yours,
Ilya

??? See above.
Hope this helps,
Ilya
P.S. Hmm, maybe you indeed need to be spoon-fed... Then: the heuristic
"if fd=0 is opened for write, then it is a user error"

Subject: perl module to write on a var
Message-Id: <dontmewithme-60AD4F.14493725102008@news.tin.it>
Hi,
I've been using a perl module that writes binary data on a file...now
I would like to save this binary data on a var insted of on a file...the
following si the code:
my $_mp3 = MP3::Tag->new($file);
my $_id3v2 = $_mp3->new_tag("ID3v2");
$_id3v2->add_frame($key, $value);
$_id3v2->write_tag();
I'd rather save the data on a var kept in memory (I must not save the
data on a file!)
so is there anyway to have my $_mp3 = MP3::Tag->new($file); point to a
var?
thanks

Unfortunately you don't have much control with MP3 module, so you'd
have to write the file first and then read it into a variable.

That depends on the string. If it is a byte string, you are right. If it
is a scalar string, the string must be traversed to count the
characters. However, the result seems to be cached - it makes almost no
difference whether I call length on a (long) string once or 1000 times
(tested with perl 5.8.8 and 5.10.0).
