[rrd-users] Re: My perl script is has a fault ?

[Peter Valdemar Mørch]

Hi there,

Please bear in mind that this is not a perl support forum.

However, here is a little programming advice: When you have a problem 
such as yours, try creating the smallest program that generates the 
errors & warnings. I'm pretty sure that you can narrow this down to a 
program of 5 lines or so that generates the same warnings.

Yes, it takes time. But it is time well spent. You'll probably learn a 
lot along the way.

Start by making a copy of your original program and then remove all the 
bits that don't contribute to the problem. Eventually you'll end up with 
something very simple, and maybe you'll even be able to figure out the 
solution to your problem all by yourself.

Hint: In perl, the Data::Dumper module can be very handy for looking at 
variable values along the way:
use Data::Dumper;
print Dumper($myVariable, $myOtherVariable);

I for one am not going to try to understand 228 lines of code. Think: 
"10 is max".

Happy hacking!

Peter
