Hi, All!
I'm very new in Perl, so may be I'm doing something wrong.
Please help me with this :
my script read configuration file, that looks like this:
#---------------------
#hostname #username #Path #gzip
after #delete after
hpn003 ctanya $PRIVATE_LOG/old_files 15
40
hpn003 ctanya /var/tmp/tanya* 20
60
# -------------------------
Path could be physical or start with environment variable; so in my script
I'm trying to check if the first character of $path is "$";
I tried it this way :
if ( "$path" =~ /^$/ ) {
printf("path is env var\n");
}
else {
printf ("working on phys.dir\n");
}
And it's not working.
What's wrong ?
Thanks in advance.
