I have multiple line file and I am trying to extract only
START .. END part it works one way but not another ?.
#Input file:
#SomeChar
# START
#value
# END
#AnotherChar
#This code extract START .. END (OK)
while (<>) {
my $stag='START';
my $etag='END';
my $line;
$line=$_;
if ($line=~/$stag/../$etag/)
{
print $line;
}
}
#This code extract START .. END + everything after (NOT GOOD)
sub getInfoFromMultipleLine
{
#Openning file for reading
open(IFH,"$InputFile") || die "Can't open file: $InputFile\n";
my $stag='START';
my $etag='END';
my $line;
while($line=<IFH>)
{
if ($line=~m/$stag/../$etag/)
{
print $line;
}
}
}
$InputFile="$LocationOfTheScriptsDirectory\\A.txt";
getInfoFromMultipleLine();
Thanks in advance

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.
