( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

sandeepda:

Parsing the strings ought to be easy. It prefaces the interesting data with a bar of hyphens, and the name, IP and port ought not have whitespace. So you can simply read and discard lines until you find the line of hyphens. After that, you can use a simple split to break out the individual fields:

while (my $line = <$FH>) { next if $line =~ /^-----/; my ($name, $ip, $port) = split /\s+/, $line; print "Name: $name, IP: $ip, Port: $port\n"; }

Other alternatives include using substr or unpack for breaking up lines with fixed-length fields.

When your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like your thumb.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
