Hi everyone, what I'm trying to do is open a huge list of files (about 40k records, and match them on a line in a file that contains 2 millions records. And if my line from file A matches a line in file B write out that line.
File A contains a bunch of files without extensions and file B contains full file paths including extensions.
i'm using this but i cant get it to go...
string alphaFilePath = (@"C:\Documents and Settings\g\Desktop\Arrp\Find\natst_ready.txt");
List<string> alphaFileContent = new List<string>();
using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(alphaFilePath, FileMode.Open))
using (StreamReader rdr = new StreamReader(fs))
{
while (!rdr.EndOfStream)
{
alphaFileContent.Add(rdr.ReadLine());
}
}
string betaFilePath = @"C:\Documents and Settings\g\Desktop\Arryup\Find\eble.txt";
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(betaFilePath, FileMode.Open))
using (StreamReader rdr = new StreamReader(fs))
{
while (!rdr.EndOfStream)
{
string betaFileLine = rdr.ReadLine();
string matchup = Regex.Match(alphaFileContent, @"(\\)(\\)(\\)(\\)(\\)(\\)(\\)(\\)(.*)(\.)").Groups[9].Value;
if (alphaFileContent.Equals(matchup))
{
File.AppendAllText(@"C:\array_tech.txt", betaFileLine);
}
}
}
This doesnt work because the alphafilecontent is a single line only and i'm having a hard time figuring out how to get my regex to work on the file that contains all the file paths (Betafilepath)
here is a sample of the beta file path.
C:\arres_i\Grn\Ora\SEC\DBZ_EX1\Nes\001\DZO-EX00001.txt
Here is the line i'm trying to compare from my alpha
DZO-EX00001
