Hi there,
I have got the example of trailing a file from Perl Cookbook:
---
for (;;) {
while (FH) { print $_ }
sleep 1;
seek(FH, 0, 1);
}
---
However, if another program removes (all) lines from the file referenced by
FH, perl looses the trailing (for a undetermined
Well,
I should not lock it. Actually, my code should be robust enough to
workaround it and tail -f a file that is reseted sometimes.
Cheers,

Guys,
How can I check if the remote peer closed my TCP connection?
The following code is OK (taken from the book) because it expects something
to come from the peer:
use IO::Socket;
$sock = new IO::Socket::INET (LocalHost = 'goldengate',
of it and
it takes to much time (and to many lines lost) to re-synch with the file
again. Question: How do I improve the trailing so that I wont miss lines
when the file is rewritten?
I have copied the code in this e-mail, since it's quite small.
Regards,
Bruno Figueira
