Exit codes from system command issue

[MoshiachNow]

HI,

The following commands produces "0" exit code,even if the registry key does not exist:

system("regedit /e BRDG.reg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\\Creo\\Araxi\\2.0.4.BLD69\\Default\\BRDG");

Another command produces exit code "1024"if the file does not exist ("$? >> 8" matches "4"):

system("xcopy /e /i d:\\InetPub\\

http://wwwroot\\PrinergyWebRoot\\Ruser\\Custom\\Logo

Logo");

What IS the right way to catch the correct exit code for both ?

Thanks

the operating system is returing the exit code, not perl.

Ok,

So is there a way to decide id the system command WAS completed succesfully ?
