Hi

I have to find a particular keyword in file(<run>) and then truncate whatever is present after it and then seek to that position and start writing again on file.My code is as follows

$outputDir="$Location/statistic_file.xml";

open(OUTPUTFILE, '+<',$outputDir) or die "$outputDir : $!";   
my $outputFileSize = -s $outputDir;
if($outputFileSize != 0)
{
seek(CONFIRMEDOUTPUTFILE, -500, 2);
                
my $lastChrs = <OUTPUTFILE>;
my $Position = index($lastChrs, '<run>');
my $String = substr($lastChrs, $Position);
                
$String =~ /Bytes=\"(\d+)\" Scanned=\"(\d+)\" total=\"(\d+)\"/;
truncate CONFIRMEDOUTPUTFILE, $outputFileSize-length($String);
seek(CONFIRMEDOUTPUTFILE, 0, 2);
print CONFIRMEDOUTPUTFILE $temp;
}
