Append data to file

gs748

Hello,

I am invoking a Perl program test.pl in Skill script and I am trying to append data to a file by using following print statements in skill and perl. Print statements from the perl.pl are not written to "out" file.

Can you please help me to determine where I am wrong with the below syntax. Thank you!

out = outfile("./out")
poport = out
printf("PASS\n")
printf("FAIL\n")
system("perl test.pl >> out")

    Hi Andrew, Passing "a" as the second argument to outfile did the trick. Thanks for additional info, I will keep a note of poport! Thanks.
