How to read line after finding a pattern?
- by Jonathan Low
i've got a
"CHANNEL(SYSTEM.DEF.SVRCONN) CHLTYPE(SVRCONN)"
"id=3"
what i want to do is to retrieve the id after i do a search on the file and found the first line.
open (CHECKFILE8, "$file");
while (<CHECKFILE8>) #while loop to loop through each line in the file
{
chomp; #take out each line by line
$datavalue = $_; #store into var , $datavalue.
$datavalue =~ s/^\s+//; #Remove multiple spaces and change to 1 space from the front
$datavalue =~ s/\s+$//; #Remove multiple spaces and change to 1 space from the back
$datavalue =~ s/[ \t]+/ /g; #remove multiple "tabs" and replace with 1 space
if($datavalue eq "CHANNEL(SYSTEM.DEF.SVRCONN) CHLTYPE(SVRCONN)")
{
// HOW TO READ THE NEXT LINE?
}
}
}
close(CHECKFILE8);
}
Thanks
