Subject: Perl net::ftp, rmdir - possible bug
Date: Wed, 5 Jun 2002 14:26:29 +1000
Graham, I have found net::ftp very useful thanks. I suspect that the rmdir method s not returning the expected values (ie true or undef). No matter what I do in the following scenario, I get a "didn't work" message even if the directory was succsessfully removed. I am using an Activestate 5.6.1 installation of Perl on WinNT. if ($ftp->rmdir('/some/directory/')) { $msg = "did work"; } else { $msg = "didn't work"; } I hope that this input is constructive. Regards, Jason Simont
