The program I'm writing is going to run under a cron job. Therefore its
important that I catch all exceptions in a file and not have them return to
the command line.
For instance the following:
(system(ls *.r $plantfile)
raises this exception at times:
ls: 0653-341 The file *.r does not
have
BEGIN
{
open (STDOUT, '/some/log/file')
}
if you want it to file
otherwise do,
open (STDOUT, STDERR);
and with shellstuff, redirects stdout, 2 redirects stderr so
system (ls /apa /dev/null 21);
redirects both outputs to /dev/null
is that what you wanted?
