One way to do it is to generate a lookup hash keyed on your search data. Here's a starting point:
use warnings; use strict; my @file1 = ( '1141286452,ServerA,Disk Full', '1141286737,ServerB,Net Down', '1141286737,ServerC,Disk Full' ); my @file2 = ( '1141286737,ServerB,Net Down', '1141286780,ServerD,Bit Bucket Missing' ); my %file1LookUp; push @{$file1LookUp{$file1[$_ - 1]}}, $_ for (1..@file1); for (@file2) { print "Matched $_ at line(s) @{$file1LookUp{$_}}\n" if exists $fil +e1LookUp{$_}; }
Prints:
Matched 1141286737,ServerB,Net Down at line(s) 2
