Subject: Tie::File seems to run slowly or grind
Anyway, all I'm trying to do right now is get a reading on how many lines
(records) there are in my test file, but the script simply grinds and
grinds.
My somewhat abbreviated code:
use Tie::File;
use Fcntl 'O_RDONLY';
tie ( @lines, "Tie::File", "$testfile", mode => O_RDONLY ) or die
"\nUnable to Tie File >$testfile< \n" ;
my $n_recs = @lines;
print "\n\tThere are $n_recs records or lines are in the file\n";
Try this
open FILE,"<$testfile";
my $n_recs=0;
while(my $rec = <FILE>) {$n_recs++}
close FILE;
print "\n\tThere are $n_recs records or lines are in the file\n";
Is this what you need?
