Hello experts, I am new to Perl and need to write a perl script to read a file and find some string and generate another file based on that. Here's what i am looking for now. My Input is a file containing
&LOG &LOG TEXT: "C:\temp\xyz.txt" &LOG Action: DEFAULT &LOG Naming_Technique: DEFAULT_NAMING Default_Name: @ST/ABC1234/00001 &LOG Container: "current:entity" &LOG Type: SIMILAR &LOG Name: ABC-Y &LOG Description: ABC-Z &LOG Associated_Files_Directory: "" &LOG &LOG TEXT: "C:\temp\abc.txt" &LOG Action: DEFAULT &LOG Naming_Technique: DEFAULT_NAMING Default_Name: @ST/ABC5678/00001 &LOG Container: "current:entity" &LOG Type: SIMILAR &LOG Name: EWQ-Y &LOG Description: EWQ-Z &LOG Associated_Files_Directory: "" &LOG &LOG TEXT: "C:\temp\rtq.txt" &LOG Action: DEFAULT &LOG Naming_Technique: DEFAULT_NAMING Default_Name: @ST/ABC2345/00002 &LOG Container: "current:entity" &LOG Type: SIMILAR &LOG Name: ERD-Y &LOG Description: ERD-Z &LOG Associated_Files_Directory: "" &LOG
My script has to read the above file and get the lines with TEXT: and Naming_Technique: and create another file as below
[xyz.txt] db_part_no=ABC1234 db_part_rev=00001 [abc.txt] db_part_no=ABC5678 db_part_rev=00001 [rtq.txt] db_part_no=ABC2345 db_part_rev=00002
Can someone help me here please?
