Hi Experts,
I have the following code (which parses through a file) looking for particular text.
$fileName = shift;
open(HND, $fileName) or die "Can't open $fileName: $!";
@fileArr = <HND>;
close(HND);
foreach my $line ( @fileArr ) {
$line =~ s/<bindpass>welcome<\/bindpass>/<bindpass>Welcome1<\/
+bindpass>/g;
}
open(HND, ">$fileName") or die "Cant open for writing $fileName: $!"
+;
print HND @fileArr;
close(HND);
This works perfectly fine and replaces all occurrences in the file correctly.
Issue here is, the third time this text appears, it appears after a line, lets say,
<bindname>abcde<\/bindname>.
I do not want the occurrence to change in this case. So how can I include this in my code?
Help appreciated. Thanks !
