2002-02-01 Thread Kevin

Hi 

I have a really simple problem that I could solve easily with a strstr() call 
in c but cannot get my head around in perl.

I have have the following input.

Active Accounted actions on tty57, User fred Priv 1
 Task ID 35176, Network Accounting record, 02:04:00 Elapsed

what I want to do is 

   for $data (@raw_data){
if $data contains "User"
$username = [the word after User];
   }

The length of this string can vary so I cannot rely on "User" being at n 
charcters from beginning or end of string.

I am sure it is a RegEx problem but any help/pointers appreciated.

Thanks

Kevin

something like
if ($data =~ /User ([^ ]*)/)
{
  $username = $1;
}

what happends there is that it checks for the occurance of User then a
space followed by 0-* nonspace chars. it puts the nonspace cars, ie the
username in $1 since we hve the () around that part.

you should read the documentation at 'perldoc perlre' and/or read books
about perl. My guess is that it'd take you 5 mins of reading in learning
perl to solve this problem.

How about this :-

foreach $data (@raw_data){
  if ($data =~/User (\b\w+\b)/){
 $username = $1;
  };
};

a shortcut would be 
foreach (@raw_data){
  if (/User (\b\w+\b)/){
 $username = $1;
  };
};

or 
do {$username = $1 if (/User (\b\w+\b)/)} foreach (@raw_data);

translation of logical operators

2002-02-01 Thread Filson

Dear perl mongers. I need to know if I can translate symbols in a text file into 
logical operators like AND|OR|NOT and so forth. The thing is that I'm trying to build 
a simulator for digital cuircuts, with input files in 3DML style (ascii graphix style) 
like this:

=A-N>
=O>
>A-

Hrm, a little explanation might be handy.
A dual input AND gate inputs signal to a NOT gate.
Dual input OR gate.
Result of AND+NOT, and OR gates enters AND gate and out comes result.
I know it's a mouthfull or two, since I just got the Lhama, but if you could kick me 
in the right direction...

Hi list.

I'm currently doing a perl project involving XML parser.

given this xml snippet:

how can i get the PCDATA for the element "owner"? i want to get just 
the "owner" elements and the content of the "owner."

i've created a code that will trap for the start and end tags of 
the element "owner" as well as the handlers for the characters 
that were part of the markup but no particular handlers.

please help.

thanks.

change all files in directory

2002-02-01 Thread Booher Timothy B 1stLt AFRL/MNAC

Hello, I am trying to change all files in a directory that contain the
strings Satellite satellite and SATELLITE that I need to change to target,
Target and TARGET. Because many of these are C++ source files I need to
preserve the case. I was thinking of the following script:
 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
#UNTESTED
 
@FilesInDirectory = <*.cpp *.hpp *.asc>;
foreach $FileName (@FilesInDirectory) {
open(IN, $FileName);
while {
$_ =~ s/satellite/target/;
$_ =~ s/Satellite/Target/;
$_ =~ s/SATELLITE/TARGET/;}
}
 
but this just doesn't seem as efficient as it can be. I was trying to think
of regex that could do it all in one line but it seemed so much simpler to
do it in three.
 
Any thoughts,
 
Tim
 



RE: PERL and XML Parser

2002-02-01 Thread Hanson, Robert

There are tons of XML modules, many of which make that sort of thing easy...
but it depends on exactly what you want to do.  Here are some snippets:

use XML::EasyOBJ;

my $obj = new XML::EasyOBJ('killme.xml');

foreach ( $obj->albums ) {
print $_->owner->getString . "\n";
}

-- OR --

use XML::RAX;

my $rax = new XML::RAX;

$rax->openfile('killme.xml');
$rax->setRecord('albums');

while ( my $rec = $rax->readRecord ) {
print $rec->getField('owner') . "\n";
}

And there are *LOTS* more.  It all depends on what you need to do.

BTW - The current version of XML::EasyOBJ on CPAN is a bit old.  I have a
newer version that includes read and write capabilities but I haven't
written up the new docs for it yet.  I can send it if you wanted.

Not sure if it'll be any quicker. If you keep your code do not forget 
to add the /g option, otherwise you'd only replace the first 
occurence on each line.

The MSI uses the Microsoft installer, which means you can uninstall it.  Use
that one if you can.  The AS package does not include an installer (well
maybe a batch script, but I'm not sure).

There's an entry in the Perl FAQ for preserving case, but there's a much
simpler way:

  sub case {
my ($s, $d) = @_;
$s = substr($s, 0, length($d)) if length($d) < length($s);
$d ^ (~$s & (" " x length $s));
  }

Try it out:

  for (qw( satellite Satellite SATELLITE )) {
print case($_ => "target"), "\n";
  }

The output is

  target
  Target
  TARGET

Its usage in a s/// is:

  s/(word to change)/case($1, "word to become")/eg;

This can actually be done on the command-line:

perl -pi.bak -e 's/satellite/target/g' *.cpp *.hpp. *.asc

There's nothing wrong with doing it in three steps.

UFO (Unidentified Formatting Observation) on the web....

2002-02-01 Thread Ron Goral

I have a very beginner's question.  I've just been looking at the code for a
library file and noticed some, to me, very peculiar things.  First, there is
text that is not commented, it is just typed in place.  Why does this not
interfere with the script?  Second, there are expressions like "=pod" and
"=cut" and "=head1".  What do these mean?  Third, there is a "1;" at the
very end of the file.  I've seen that before, but what is the purpose?
Fourth, there is text like "I blah blah" and "B" (I
assume that this last is a comment on text decoration).  Can anyone tell me
what these mean?  Is there a difference in a library file and a regular
script file that allows for this?   Is there some tutorial or documentation
about the differences in writing a library/module versus a normal script
file?

The text that "is not commented", you will find, is placed inbetween the
=XYZ statements.  The =XYZ statements are called Pod directives, and the
I<...> and B<...> statements are Pod markup.  Pod is "Plain Old
Documentation", a very simple markup language for documenting Perl
programs.

Read 'perldoc perlpod' for information on Pod.

The '1;' at the end of the file is there so that the file returns a true
value when Perl require()s it.  See 'perldoc -f require'.

As for how a library or module differs from a "normal" program, it's
basically how an encyclopedia differs from your term paper.  You READ your
term paper, and it makes references to places in the encyclopedia -- you
wouldn't use the entire encyclopedia as your term paper.

That is POD (Plain Old Documentation).  POD is a method of documenting
Perl code be it a script or a library.  See "perldoc perlpod" for more
information.  

The 1; at the end of the file is necessary for libraries only.  See
"perldoc perlmod" for more information.

RE: change all files in directory

2002-02-01 Thread Hanson, Robert

Oh, you're on Windows, it may not work because of the shell ("cmd").

In Windows the single quotes around the code usually need to be double
quotes, and it doesn't seem to be expanding *.cpp when on Unix (types) it
will expand that to all of the individual file names.

I guess you need to write a script then like you were originally planning to
do.  ...Or if you want to be bold, install Cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com/)
which includes tons of Unix utilities that will run on Win95/98/ME/NT/2K.
Among the utilities is "bash", and command shell which you can use instead
of "cmd" on NT/2K and "command" on Win95/98/ME.  After using bash for a
while you will wonder why you ever wanted to use "cmd" to begin with (I know
I do).

Yes. ...Sort of.

The =pod and =cut are usually used for documentation but works for
commenting out chunks of code as well.  Currently there are no other
mechanisms (unless you want to put it all in a if(0){} block :).

Include file

2002-02-01 Thread gross, cedric

I have a set of program to do which is using always same var.
 
So I would like to defined a small file where I defined my var (like
$database="toto" $host="localhost" etc..) and then include it in my
other program, but
How to do that ?
 
I try "use" but it's seems that is for complete module.
"require" seems to be for version behavior
and include seems not be supported...
 
I browse doc but I found nothing..

I think that instead of 'print', you should try 'warn' or 'die.

The exec will only fail if rsh doesn't exist. Assuming rsh
exists, rsh *completely replaces* your perl script. Any problems
encountered by rsh will be apparent only after your perl script is
gone.

You need to use system() instead of exec() if you need to determine
whether rsh had any problems.

Get IP address from ifconfig

2002-02-01 Thread Chris Weyn

Richard,

the bash shell script I used to do that was the following:

/sbin/ifconfig eth0 |grep inet |cut -d ' ' -f12 | cut -d ':' -f2

This may not be generic, and you may have to fine-tune it to work for you, but
it should give you the basic premise...

Win32::GUI - Getting rid of console Window?

RE: still not catching error

2002-02-01 Thread John Edwards

Try

$result = `rsh $plant /u1/bin/forkit '/u1/bin/work.pl'`;

print $result;

You are storing the output of the rsh... command into the variable. You can
now run a regex on that to check for success/failure.

I don't know what the output should be but as an example...

$result = `rsh $plant /u1/bin/forkit '/u1/bin/work.pl'`;

if ($result =~ /worked/i) {
print "Yep, that worked\n";
} else {
print "Ooops. Something went wrong: $result";
}

Perl DBI - using parameters

2002-02-01 Thread McElwee, Shane

Hi,

This is my first effort at perl scripting so forgive my innocence. What I am
trying to do is extract schema and data info from a proprietary database
into flat files, format those files and import the data and schema into an
Oracle database. 

The initial part of this is capturing the table names into an array and then
using that array to query the database and dump the results to flat files.
Where I'm having trouble is in using a bound parameter in the sql statement.
If I use a table name directly it works without a problem but when I
parameterise it I get a Parse Error.

foreach $i (@table_arr){
  $content = $i;
# print ("table name is:  $i \n");
  open( CONTENT, ">$content" ) || die "Can't open file $content";
  my $sth = $dbh->prepare("select * from ?");
  $sth->bind_param(1, $i);

  my $row;

  $sth->execute or die "Can't execute SQL statement: ", $sth->errstr(),
"\n";
  $row = $sth->dump_results(80, "\n", ':',\*CONTENT);
 }

Any ideas where I could be going wrong?

Cheers

Shane

RE: PERL and XML Parser

2002-02-01 Thread Stout, Joel R

I not sure how more experienced Perl developers feel but in addition to
XML::Parser, I found XML::SimpleObject a great way to start parsing XML.
Here's a link:

http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2001/04/18/perlxmlqstart1.html 


Additionally, you can model the data anyway you want, but here's a little
twist on what you have that may be worth pondering:


Alice in Chains   
Percy
Rock   
 

The Pixies   
Percy
Rock   
 

Percy and the Test Tube Babies   
Percy
Rock   
   

Bob Marley   
Percy
Reggae   
   

Peter Tosh   
Percy
Reggae  
   

Percy Gone Jazz   
Percy
Reggae   
   

Yes Percy (owner) is repeated and so is the category, but it makes it a
little easier to add another album to your file:

Napalm Death   
Joel
Ballads   
 

Hope this helps.

Joel

Hash Question

Since this is a beginners list, I thought I would be allowed to ask this
question. Can there be multiple values for hash keys, or just one? The
reason I am asking is that I am working on a statistical program and would
need to use multiple hashes as values of another hash. If this is possible,
please let me know. Thank you.

Placeholders are for data, not SQL syntax.  A placeholder doesn't just
insert the text as is, it quotes it.  In your case, the quoting is
preventing the database from being able to parse it.  Instead of using a
placeholder just use Perl to interpolate:

my $sth = $dbh->prepare("select * from $i");

Also, if $i is input from a user make sure to check it; I'd suggest
not allowing anything except [A-Za-z0-9_].

RE: Hash Question

2002-02-01 Thread Hanson, Robert

Just one unless you use references.  

Here is an example with references...

%hash = ( one => 1, two => 2 );
$hash{oneagain} = \$hash{one};

foreach my $key ( keys %hash ) {
my $value = (ref $hash{$key}) ? ${$hash{$key}} : $hash{$key};
print "$key => $value\n";
}

And when you change the value of either key (directly or by reference)
both values will be changed because they point to the same piece of data.
And if you delete one of the keys the other will still remain.

You can change it by setting up a sub like this (or directly but that would
be messy)...

setVal(\%hash, 'one', 'ONE');
setVal(\%hash, 'oneagain', 'ONE');

sub setVal {
my $hash = shift;
my $key = shift;
my $value = shift;

if (ref $hash->{$key}) {
${$hash->{$key}} = $value;
}
else {
$hash->{$key} = $value;
}
}

Hashes cannot store multiple values (to the best of my
knowledge), although they can store arrays or
additional hashes which can of course, contain more
values.

Re: Hash Question

2002-02-01 Thread Deen Hameed


Keys are unique in a hash; what you put in them is up to you. the new
value will overwrite the old value, unless you append it during
assignment, using the . operator. Yes, you can store a hash in a hash in a 
hash... :)

try perldoc perldsc for stuff on data structures.

# Either will work, but I prefer the second

That tries writing to the filehandle NAME, too.  Instead of select(NAME),
do:

  $~ = "NAME";

That will set STDOUT's default format name to "NAME".

That tries writing to the filehandle NAME, too.  Instead of select(NAME),
do:

  $~ = "NAME";

That will set STDOUT's default format name to "NAME".

I assume you mean a multi-dimensional hash.  Perl allows infinite
(assuming you have the resources) nesting of data structures.  This is
accomplished by using a reference to the structure to be nested.  So for
a three dimension hash you would first have a hash whose values were
hash references.  Then those hashes would have values that were also
references to hashes.  You could then access the data like this:

print $hash{'key1'}->{'key2'}->{'key3'}, "\n";

but Perl being what it is provides a little syntatic suger and lets you
just write this:

print $hash{'key1'}{'key2'}{'key3'}, "\n";



#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;

my %hash;

while (<>) {
my ($key1, $key2, $key3, $data) = split;

$hash{$key1}{$key2}{$key3} = $data if $key1 and $key2 and $key3;
}

foreach my $key1 (sort keys %hash) {
foreach my $key2 (sort keys %{$hash{$key1}}) {
foreach my $key3 (sort keys %{$hash{$key1}{$key2}}) {
print "($key1)+($key2)+($key3) returns ",
$hash{$key1}{$key2}{$key3}, "\n";
}
}
}

RE: Hash Question

2002-02-01 Thread Hanson, Robert

Better yet you could use 'tie' and create your own hash implementation like
the code below.  You will be able to set and retreive values normally except
for the fact that if you want a single value to be linked to two keys you
will need to store the value in one key and reference that key in another
key (i.e. $hash{foo} = 1; $hash{bar} = \$hash{foo}).

Rob

package MyHash;

require Tie::Hash;
@ISA = (Tie::StdHash);

sub FETCH {
my $hash = shift;
my $key = shift;

if (ref $hash->{$key}) {
return ${$hash->{$key}};
}
else {
return $hash->{$key};
}
}

sub STORE {
my $hash = shift;
my $key = shift;
my $value = shift;

if (ref $hash->{$key}) {
${$hash->{$key}} = $value;
}
else {
$hash->{$key} = $value;
}
}

package main;

tie %hash, 'MyHash';

%hash = ( one => 1, two => 2 );
$hash{oneagain} = \$hash{one};

$hash{three} = 3;
$hash{oneagain} = 'ONE';

foreach my $key ( keys %hash ) {
print "$key => $hash{$key}\n";
}

Re: directory file rename

2002-02-01 Thread Jason Purdy

Hmmm ... seems pretty simple ... here's my baby-talk approach:

# note: I would tar up your directory b4 running this program, just
# in case it doesn't work (not in the mood to test this w/ my mp3's ;))
# backup backup backup! :)

use File::Copy;

# first, read in the dir/files
opendir (DIR, "/path/to/mp3s");
my @files = readdir(DIR);
closedir (DIR);

# now go through each file, rename/move to new file
# and append change to logfile

# opening log file
open (LOG, ">>/path/to/logfile");

# set the first number
my $filenum = 1;

foreach (@files) {
my $newfile = "/path/to/newmp3s/" . $filenum++ . ".mp3";

# you may need to preface $_ with the full path, such as
# move( "/path/to/mp3s/$_", $newfile );

# you may also want to use copy() instead of move() to test

move( $_, $newfile );

Placeholders are for data, not SQL syntax.  A placeholder doesn't just
insert the text as is, it quotes it.  In your case, the quoting is
preventing the database from being able to parse it.  Instead of using a
placeholder just use Perl to interpolate:

my $sth = $dbh->prepare("select * from $i");

Also, if $i is input from a user make sure to check it; I'd suggest
not allowing anything except [A-Za-z0-9_].

Re: Include file

2002-02-01 Thread jeff loetel

You could use the module that I am trying to use but having problems:
"AppConfig"

or you could use this (it works but is to limited for what I need):

#/usr/bin/perl

my $file = "/dir/somefile.txt";
open (CONFIG, "< $file") or die "Can't open $file";
while () {
   chomp;  #no newline
   s/#.*//;#no comments
   s/^\s+//;   #no leading white
   s/\s+$//;   #no trailing white
   next unless length; #anything left?
   my ($var, $value) = split(/\s*=\s*/, $_, 2);
   $config{$var} = $value;
}
close(CONFIG);

#then print everything or a specific $var 
exit;

That should do the trick for you, if you have any luck see my positing
on AppConfig. AppConfig is used to do the same thing plus it has a lot
more features in it, I just can't get the damn thing to work. If this
works for you and you have a spare minute I would appreciate any help
that I could get on the AppConfig (two brains are better than one). If
you don't have time, don't worry about it.

Oh, you didn't say you were using Winders.  It doesn't like the single
quotes, so you will need to use double quotes, or do it as a script after
all.

Or install CygWin, which has it's own build of Perl (and gcc, and bash,
and lots of other goodies that are sorely missed in the glorified DOS
shell).

RE: Please point me to a language (perl I hope)

2002-02-01 Thread Camilo Gonzalez

Please stop making life difficult for yourself. If you need just a small
part of a large image to animate, chop up the large image so the animated
part can be isolated, place all the parts in a table to unite them and
animate the needed part. 

As for the person walking, either use the above technique or if the file
sizes become unwieldy, use DHTML. Perl can do server side animation for you,
but it's a bigger headache than what I've described.

As a caveat, please be aware that most people find gratuitous animation
annoying. If you can get away with not animating something, don't.

Sorry if this is off topic, but I really don't know who else to ask.

Heres what I want to do.. maybe you would be so kind as to tell me what
language this can best be done in. I'm just learning perl and know HTML.

within frames (or a table)...
I would like to put a large gif in the backround and then place a smaller
gif over it.
The smaller gif is where the movement or animation would happen, Like a
mouth moving over a picture of a person. 

Could this be done with 2 or 3 small moving gifs at the same time?
Like a candle flame and a mouth of a person?

If I had a picture of a forest, I'd like to have a person walk from left to
right.
would this mean individual gifs or one multi-gif animation in a frame that
moves over the backround?

I have looked into Java, Javascript, CSS and DHTML and all look promising,
but I have yet to find an example in a book that answers my question.

Help? Please?

If, by chance, you're not confused enough yet, you could take a 
look at a "tutorial", (and I use that term loosely), that I wrote 
ONLY to help myself understand nested hashes.  

(Although I think what you want is really called a hash of lists, 
examples of which should be in any good Perl book).

The rule of thumb for animated images:
Flashing, blinking, rotating, jumpy-bumpy effects are distracting. If you
must use animated images, keep it small, tasteful, and to a bare minimum.
Studies have found that users have actually gone so far as to 'cover'
annoying animations and blinking text with their hands when viewing a site
containing these 'features'.

Please stop making life difficult for yourself. If you need just a small
part of a large image to animate, chop up the large image so the animated
part can be isolated, place all the parts in a table to unite them and
animate the needed part. 

As for the person walking, either use the above technique or if the file
sizes become unwieldy, use DHTML. Perl can do server side animation for you,
but it's a bigger headache than what I've described.

As a caveat, please be aware that most people find gratuitous animation
annoying. If you can get away with not animating something, don't.

Heres what I want to do.. maybe you would be so kind as to tell me what
language this can best be done in. I'm just learning perl and know HTML.

within frames (or a table)...
I would like to put a large gif in the backround and then place a smaller
gif over it.
The smaller gif is where the movement or animation would happen, Like a
mouth moving over a picture of a person. 

Could this be done with 2 or 3 small moving gifs at the same time?
Like a candle flame and a mouth of a person?

If I had a picture of a forest, I'd like to have a person walk from left to
right.
would this mean individual gifs or one multi-gif animation in a frame that
moves over the backround?

I have looked into Java, Javascript, CSS and DHTML and all look promising,
but I have yet to find an example in a book that answers my question.

Help? Please?

Some newer browsers (Mozilla, Galeon) even have the options of only
allowing an animation to run once, or not at all.

I assume you mean a multi-dimensional hash.  Perl allows infinite
(assuming you have the resources) nesting of data structures.  This is
accomplished by using a reference to the structure to be nested.  So for
a three dimension hash you would first have a hash whose values were
hash references.  Then those hashes would have values that were also
references to hashes.  You could then access the data like this:

print $hash{'key1'}->{'key2'}->{'key3'}, "\n";

but Perl being what it is provides a little syntatic suger and lets you
just write this:

print $hash{'key1'}{'key2'}{'key3'}, "\n";



#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;

my %hash;

while (<>) {
my ($key1, $key2, $key3, $data) = split;

$hash{$key1}{$key2}{$key3} = $data if $key1 and $key2 and $key3;
}

foreach my $key1 (sort keys %hash) {
foreach my $key2 (sort keys %{$hash{$key1}}) {
foreach my $key3 (sort keys %{$hash{$key1}{$key2}}) {
print "($key1)+($key2)+($key3) returns ",
$hash{$key1}{$key2}{$key3}, "\n";
}
}
}

Checking an existing instance of a process

What is the most cautious way to see if I am already running an instance of
a program and kill that said process?
I'm setting up a shell that will be launched from a cronjob and want to make
sure that if there was an instance of the same process running, that it was
killed up front, before continuing on through the program.


in Bourne shell, I would use the following code:
exec > /dev/null 2>&1
Progname='basename $0'
PIDfile=/var/tmp/$Progname.pid
OLDPID=`cat $PIDfile 2>/dev/null`
test -n $OLDPID && kill -9 $OLDPID

RE: Win32::GUI - Getting rid of console Window?

2002-02-01 Thread Russ Foster

The only downside to this method is that an errant Perl Window can linger
around long after you think it's been closed (i.e. it won't show anywhere
expect under Task Manager).

I prefer making a copy of perl.exe (in C:\Perl\bin) and call it something
like perlw.exe. Then register perlw.exe as a Windows app, instead of a DOS
app.

My Windows perl scripts get an extention of .plw which gets associated with
perlw.exe

First off, you don't need $tblcnt.  @tables in a scalar context will
return the number of elements and you can simply push the value onto the
array (see perldoc -f push).  This also gets rid of the if $table
business.

Second off, I assume that you are trying to treat -f table and -ftable
the same.  In which case shouldn't you increment $_ if you grab the next
arg?  

if ( $ARGV[$_] =~ /^-f(.*)/ ) {
# PARSE TABULATION VALUES
if (defined($1)) { #if there was something after -f
push @tables, $1;
} else {   #otherwise use next arg
$_++;
push @tables, $ARGV[$_];
}
}

print "There were ", scalar(@tables), "tables on the cmdline.\n";


Thirdly, where are the keys for the hashes going to come from?  And how
are you going to know at which level in the hash you want to store the
data?

To clarify:
In my example I read the keys from the first three words of a line where
the first word was the first key, the second word was the second key,
and the third word was the the third key and then treated the fourth
word as the data.

RE: Hash Question

2002-02-01 Thread Balint, Jess

The way I have the argument parsing set up is for ( 0..$#ARGV ) { . . .
When a -f n is presented on the command line, n will be the field number for
the first hash.
So if I use -f 1 -f 2 -f 3, there will be three levels of hashes. The top
level will contain all unique values in the first field of the file. The
second level will contain all unique values unique to the top level, and the
third level will be unique to the first and second level. The value of the
third level key will be a count of the occurance of all the values together
in the same line.

Yes, and you don't want it.

>foreach(@_){

Why not use an array?

  my $i = 0;
  my @data;

  foreach (@_) {
# work with $data[$i]
# and when you're done...
$i++;
  }

or some other array-oriented approach.

RE: generate variable names

2002-02-01 Thread Wagner-David

If you need something like that, you would be better off using a hash to hold 
the information vs a number of unknown variable names.

I believe that this will be confirmed by the list helpers.

The exit status of rsh is 0 if it was able to connect to the remote
system. It doesn't return the exit status of the command being run.

Try this search for some suggestions on handling this issue:

There are easier ways that what you are thinking of.

I'd just create an array or a hash -- that's the simplest and safest way
of doing what you want.

 ^^ 
This should be . If I make that change, the script runs fine for
me.

RE: Wade through a file and grab titles

2002-02-01 Thread Timothy Johnson


You can shorten this down using $_.

while(my $line = ) {
next if $line =~ /^\s*$/;
if ($line =~ /\)\.\s*$/) { # attempt to match on .) at end of line
$myTitle = <>;
print LOGFILE $myTitle; }
}

can be written as:

while() {
if ($_ =~ /\)\.\s*$/) { # attempt to match on .) at end of line
my $mytitle = ;
print LOGFILE $mytitle;
}
}

It doesn't seem like much in this example, but the $_ variable can be very
useful and save you a lot of time.

I have a bunch of files in the form below and I want to go through the list
and extract only the file name. The only way I can consistently see this is
to take the next line after the ")."
 
ahmad73 __ exist: 0

I tried the following:
 
# NOT WORKING
open(LL,$ARGV[0]) || die "can't open $ARGV for reading: $!"; # input file
open(LOGFILE,">$ARGV[1]") || die "can't open output file $ARGV[1]"; #output
file
 
while(my $line = ) {
next if $line =~ /^\s*$/;
if ($line =~ /\)\.\s*$/) { # attempt to match on .) at end of line
$myTitle = <>;
print LOGFILE $myTitle; }
}
 
This is returning all files as if the regex were continually true . . . any
body with a sharp eye
