Dear Michael,
Thanks for your immediate reply.
Well for now I only expect true / False.
The condition is not becoming true in any case.
Even when I am gernating specific errors in the eval block.
The code i am trying is like this.
$done="false";
while( $done eq "false ") {
eval {
......
.....
read form files.
....process info...
write back to files
};
( $@ ) ? ($done="false") : ($done="true");
}
This will loop is supposed to keep trying till the work is done. (a counter
is added for specfic number of try).
regards
Rajeev Rumale
