Hi,
I want to remove an empty file using the file handle and not a
variable name or literal name referencing it. Something like this:
1 #!/bin/perl
2 use warnings;
3 use strict;
4 no strict 'subs';
5
6 open(F, "> abc") or die "cant create file: $!";
7 close(F) or die "cant close file: $!";
8
9 unlink(\*F) if -z (F);
But, in this case, I get an error:
$ runme.pl
-z on closed filehandle F at ./x line 9.
TIA,
Jeff
