If $dir = Y is a directory and exists then the following snippet prints
nothing (as desired and expected). If $dir = Y/ZZ exists and is a link
I get 'File or directory "Y/ZZ" does not exist'. I'd rather it prints
nothing.
Obviously I'm missing something. But what?
Cheers,
Cliff
if ( ! -e "$dir" )
{
$self->{error_msg} = "File or directory \"$dir\" does not exist." ;
$self->{error} = 'true' ;
print "$self->{error_msg}\n" ;
return 1 ;
}
