hi, I have a question regarding Parse::RecDescent and it is - how can I skip some stuff, the idea is to just not parse some of the text until i i'm clear how will parse more important part of the text...ugrhhh.. restating :") f.e. lets have following text repeated many times :
class htb 2:11 root leaf 13: prio 0 rate 3125bps ceil ..... Sent 16822354 bytes 15272 pkts (dropped 0, overlimits 0) lended: 15272 borrowed: 0 giants: 0 tokens: 38 ctokens: 38
at the moment the only interesting thing for me is the second line i.e. :
Sent 16822354 bytes 15272 pkts (dropped 0, overlimits 0)
so how to make the grammar in a such a way so that i skip other things an concentrate only on this one..(i don't mean i doesn't want to parse the other stuff, just want to temporarily skip them until i finish second row.) I've tried to use <resync> w/o succees.. Currently i'm tryng this w/o big success, where is my error ? I'm missing something very basic !!!
our $tcClassGrammar = q{ classStart : class(s) class : 'class' classinfo stats stats2 stats3 #{print "$item[0]\n +"; 1} classinfo : /.+?\n/ stats : 'Sent' /\d+/ 'bytes' /\d+/ 'pkts' '(dropped' /\d+/ ',' 'ov +erlimits' /d+/ ')' { print "item[0]"; 1} stats2 : /.+?\n/ stats3 : /.+?\n/ };
