MatD has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
The example input tcl file content:
# Bind ::d::autoBindmap $intfcName -------------so many other lines------------------------------ ############ Power information for vss ##################### #---------------------------- #pg_vss s100 #---------------------------- #Add pg_vss_dl interface set intfcName pg_vss 1.0 s 100 #Add Verilog port binding for vss ::d::autoBindmap $module pg_vss $intfcName { VSSGND vss_dl; } ############ Power information for vdd ##################### #---------------------------- #pg_vdd s100 #---------------------------- #Add pg_vdd_dl interface set intfcName pg_vdd 1.0 s 100 #Add Verilog port binding for vss ::d::autoBindmap $module pg_vdd $intfcName { VDD vss_dl; } -----------------------so many other lines---------------------------- +--- #write component ::d::writeLib $module
Purpose:
I have a array (which is generated from other part of code- not presented here) consisting of strings. The array content is changing for different files. If any of the array element is found in a particular line of file using pattern matching , I need to remove 11 lines after that and the line itself from a file.
Problem:
This change should be made in current file itself. So, I tried opening the file in read-write mode. But, I am seeing garbage being printed.
For example (see input tcl file above) :
I need to remove all the lines (in this case 11) till "}" after "Power information for $rpow " (for example $rpow is vss) is found, with the line itself being removed -where vss is an element of my remove_power_list array. This removal should happen for all the array elements.
Please if anybody can solve this issue?
Only problematic code being presented here:
my $rpow; for $rpow (@remove_power_list) { my $bf_content; open $bf_content, '+<', $bf_bind; my $count = 0; while (<$bf_content>){ if($_ =~ /Power\s+information\s+for\s+$rpow\s+/) { $count = $. + 11; } else { if($count != 0 && $. < $count) { } elsif($count != 0 && $. == $count) { $count =0; } else { print $bf_content $_; } } } close $bf_content; }
Note: My perl packages does not support File:Slurp and other special Array packages.
Expected example output:
# Bind ::d::autoBindmap $intfcName -------------so many other lines------------------------------ ############ Power information for vdd ##################### #---------------------------- #pg_vdd s100 #---------------------------- #Add pg_vdd_dl interface set intfcName pg_vdd 1.0 s 100 #Add Verilog port binding for vss ::d::autoBindmap $module pg_vdd $intfcName { VDD vss_dl; } -----------------------so many other lines---------------------------- +---
