I have a 10 gig log file; I currently go
through the log looking at specific fields and do stuff with the particular
rows based on certain conditions. Each row has 12 columns. The only columns
that I need are column 6 and 8. Each column is delimited by “somedata”.
So an example row w
Using the perl dll (which you should do because it's supposed to be much
faster being that it only loads once) is also simple. You would just
put in \perlis.dll (note no %s') instead of \perl.exe "%s"
%s under the home directory configuration. If your're using IIS6 then
you need to also Expand se

don't know what database you are using, but you should make your database
eliminate all duplicate records before perl ever gets it. For instance using
MS SQL you can use the word DISTINCT as in "select distinct blah"
which will give you one of each "blah" even if you had more than
one.
My approach at any database problem is to write an appropriate dll and use
Win32:OLE to use it...okay so yeah, that doesn't help you in any
way...moving on, I've been tinkering in perl for a few years, but up until a
few weeks ago I didn't write much of anything with it. SQL Server, however,
