Question

Can someone tell me, why the “opendir” doesn’t work?

#!/usr/bin/env perl6
use v6;

my $file = 'Dokumente/test_file';

if ( my $fh = open $file, :r ) {
    for $fh.lines -> $line {
    say $line;
    }
} else {
    say "Could not open '$file'";
}


my $dir = 'Dokumente';

my $dh = opendir $dir err die "Could not open $dir: $!";

Output:

Hello, World!
Line 2.
Last line.

opendir is just not yet implemented. Please file a bug report by sending a mail to [e-mail].
