Manpages File::CheckTreeSection: Perl Programmers Reference Guide (3perl)Updated: 2001-02-22 Index Return to Main Contents NAMEvalidate - run many filetest checks on a treeSYNOPSISuse File::CheckTree; $warnings += validate( q{ /vmunix -e || die /boot -e || die /bin cd csh -ex csh !-ug sh -ex sh !-ug /usr -d || warn "What happened to $file?\n" }); DESCRIPTIONThe validate() routine takes a single multiline string consisting of lines containing a filename plus a file test to try on it. (The file test may also be a ``cd'', causing subsequent relative filenames to be interpreted relative to that directory.) After the file test you may put "|| die" to make it a fatal error if the file test fails. The default is "|| warn". The file test may optionally have a "!' prepended to test for the opposite condition. If you do a cd and then list some relative filenames, you may want to indent them slightly for readability. If you supply your own die() or warn() message, you can use $file to interpolate the filename.Filetests may be bunched: ``-rwx'' tests for all of "-r", "-w", and "-x". Only the first failed test of the bunch will produce a warning. The routine returns the number of warnings issued.
