comment on

Welcome to the monastery.

I read your post which looked like this:

I came up with a solution and clicked on the "Comment on" link to post it. I then found your posting had completely changed to this:

Please do not do this. If you want to cancel something you've posted, put <strike>...</strike> tags around the whole block of markup; add replacement text if that's appropriate; then add an Update: section which explains the changes you've made.

Here's my solution to your original problem:

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use strict;
use warnings;

my $sep = '=' x 60 . "\n";
(my $dh_file = $0) =~ s/pl$/dat/;
open_dh($dh_file);

while (1) {
    print 'Get next DH record (y/n): ';
    my $reply = <>;
    if ($reply =~ /^y/i) {
        print "Next DH record:\n";
        my $dh_record = read_dh();
        print "$sep$dh_record\n$sep";

        if (eof_dh()) {
            print "No more DH records!\n";
            last;
        } 
    }
    else {
        print "Stopped reading DH records.\n";
        last;
    }
}

close_dh();

{
    my $dh_fh;

    sub open_dh {
        my $dh_file = shift;
        open $dh_fh, '<', $dh_file or die "Can't read $dh_file: $!";
        my $discard = read_dh(); 
        return;
    }

    sub read_dh {
        local $/ = 'DH: ';
        my $dh_trim_re = qr{\A \s* (.*?) \s* (?: DH: \s )? \z}msx;
        my $dh_record = <$dh_fh>;
        $dh_record =~ s/$dh_trim_re/$1/;
        return $dh_record;
    }

    sub close_dh {
        close $dh_fh;
        return;
    }

    sub eof_dh {
        return eof $dh_fh;
    } 
}

Here's a sample run:

$ pm_get_multi_rec.pl
Get next DH record (y/n): y
Next DH record:
============================================================
mm struct{
  int a;
  char b;
  m1 struct {
  int c;
  int d;
  };
  m2 struct {
  int e;
  int f;
  };
}
2 dfdkk
df
dd

}
1
    LOCAL_PARAM: ssi_struct {
ref = 0;
header = {
req = 0xa;
};
}
============================================================

Next DH record:

  };
}
============================================================
No more DH records!
