CVS Status in Perl

[mehul.raval]

Hi,

I am working on a PERL tool and seems that theres a prob with the cvs command implementation in PERL.

I am using the system function in PERL  to run the cvs status function on the command prompt.

The command statement goes like:

@cvs_cmd = ("cvs status $dir_path_task/$file_name_task > log_data");
system (@cvs_cmd);<-- this will run the cvs status on command prompt.

Here the file variables are defined in the PERL program.

The problem is that the cvs status is not getting ran properly from the system command in PERL.

Its not redirecting the status in the log_data file.

Its simpy printing it on the console.

It would be great if someone can help me.

Thanks,

Mehul.
