I have a log file of the format: ### BEGIN LOG ### [datestamp unique-id]: <message> [datestamp unique-id]: <message> ( [field] => value [field2] => value [etc...] => value )
[datestamp unique-id]: <message> ( [field9] => value [field3] => value [etc...] => value ) ### END LOG ### Each 'record' is delimited by a blank line. The section that resembles perl a hash can be prefixed with any number of datestamp lines. I need to know what cpan modules people would recommend for tokenizing these records. I need to be able to check a specific field for a specific value and then access the previous x number of records.
