( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
so a different way to do this is with a flag and What I did was use the $on as a flag to see when to stop printing and to start so hope this helps you! if anyone knows how to a prompt string in the find part: where you search for the word you want to start from and end at if anyone can give me that then thank you! also the die thing i was told that you can have it on the same line as the open I'm relatively new to Perl so if you can also give me some pointers and shortcuts.
#!/\\perl # use strict; use warnings; # Put the file name in a string variable # so we can use it both to open the file # and to refer to in an error message # if needed. my $fileName ; my $success ; my $on = 0; # Hard-code the name of the file we're going to read. # This is the script itself. $fileName = '/\\rat09awp\ccscripts\Islam\test.log'; # Attempt to open the file. We create a file handle called "IN". # Open returns a true value if it succeeded, an undefined # value if it didn't succeed. $success = open( IN, "<$fileName" ); while ( <IN> ){ if ($_ =~ /Duplicate remedy_id:/){ print $_; $on = 1; } elsif($on){ if ($_ =~ /Duplicate ip_address:/) { last; } else{ print $_;} } # We have read all the lines from the file. # Close the file. } close( IN );

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
