Sajn_00 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi ,

I have two files, I have to update file 1, with the values from file2. for ex: in file1, ON_DIE_FILLER/filler_fuse should get value 0xa

I am having issues in comparing the names.

Please help.
file 1: ibl_ss_fuse_c0_r0/MRA_PVT_Tuning = 0x94, ibl_ss_fuse_c0_r0/S3M_SPARE_1B7_3to7 = 0x0, ON_DIE_FILLER/filler_fuse = 0x0, ON_DIE_FILLER/filler_byte = 0x0, file 2: die0_IAX_fuse_dino_c1_r0, die0_IAX_fuse_dino_c1_r0_IAX_fuse_iax_wr_ass +ist_pulsewidth, 0x5, die0_ON_DIE_FILLER, die0_ON_DIE_FILLER_ON_DIE_FILLER_filler_byte, 0xb, + die0_ON_DIE_FILLER, die0_ON_DIE_FILLER_ON_DIE_FILLER_filler_fuse, 0xa

    Show us what you have tried where it's not working for you. It may help too if you tell us something about how big each file may be.

    Note that you are likely to get more help if you format you node so that it is easy to read. You can go back and update it now (but add an "updated" comment so people know the original content has changed).

    You need a function that compares two strings and returns "TRUE" if they are sufficiently similar and "FALSE" otherwise. In general, this is impossible. We must settle for a function that is good enough. We determine "good enough" by testing. Only you can determine how much testing is required. I doubt that your example of one match and several mismatches is sufficient. Here is a sample of test code using a match and a mismatch from your test cases. I have provided my first attempt (special_match) at you function to get you started.
    use strict; use warnings; use Test::More tests=>2; my $should_match = 1; my $should_not_match = 0; my @cases = ( ['ON_DIE_FILLER/filler_fuse', 'die0_ON_DIE_FILLER_ON_DIE_FILLER_filler_fuse', $should_match, ], ['ON_DIE_FILLER/filler_fuse', 'die0_ON_DIE_FILLER_ON_DIE_FILLER_filler_byte', $should_not_match, ], ); foreach my $case (@cases) { if ($case->[2] == $should_match) { ok( special_match($case->[0], $case->[1]), $case->[1]); } else { ok( !special_match($case->[0], $case->[1]), $case->[1]); } } sub special_match { my ($s1,$s2) = @_; $s1 =~ tr{/}{_}; # fix separator return $s2 =~ m/$s1$/; # $s1 at end of $s2 } OUTPUT: 1..2 ok 1 - die0_ON_DIE_FILLER_ON_DIE_FILLER_filler_fuse ok 2 - die0_ON_DIE_FILLER_ON_DIE_FILLER_filler_byte
