no its not a tag. uhmm, never mind the XML file. i just want to know
how to read a line in a file and process that line.
ex:
****file starts****
model01,,,serial12
model02,,,serial35
model04,,,serial98
model90,,,serial71
...
***file ends***
these are the contents of the file. each file in /home/cj/test/ is in
this format. each file has 1000 lines.
what i have in mind is this:
-----------------------------
newfile.writeln("header");
for each file in /home/cj/test/ {
line = file.readLine();
model = line.substring(0, line.indexOf(","));
serial = line.substring(line.lastIndexOf(","));
newfile.writeln("<data model=\"" + model + "\" serial=\"" + serial
+ "\" >");
}
newfile.writeln("footer");
------------------------------
:) i hope you understand my algorithm.. i want to do this in bash script.
thanks..

hi,
what do you mean by <model>? was it a tag or an argument?
if it is a tag (w/o end tags), you may process it with a tool called
"normalize" (you may then validate it against a dtd,) then create
an xslt filter to tranform it to your desired xml output. then validate
it again. *whew.
if not, you may use a bash script similar to this:
exec < /path/to/file
while read line
do
#process the line here
done
