Hi all, I've been thrown in the deep end to try and work out what the problem with a perl script running on Novell Bordermanager. I'm probably going to have a few stupid questions over the next few days. Please forgive me before hand, and dont laugh too much! I am trying to bolster my knowledge via the on-line library at learn.perl.org, perldoc, and a couple of online tutorials I found.
Whilst troubleshooting the script (using -w and -c) I get references to line xxx.. My stupid question number one is: When Perl processes the script, how does it identify the lines of code? ie.. If an error occurs at line 125, is that the 125'th line of actual code, or does it count every single line in the script from the beginning including remm'ed statements, blank lines etc...?? My reason for asking, is that with -w I get "use of uninitiaized value at..." errors which do not make much sense at the line numbers mentioned...
