In a file,
I need to remove a part of string: /o
string:
or
the string can be
here I need to remove /d2
So, I need to remove everything after when I get last /
So if I'm given a location of a file like:
How can I just take the type of the file at the end? I know I can use strrchr() for a period to get the pointer to the period just before file type. Is there a build in string function that will just take the rest of the string from a certain point on forward in the string? I know it wouldn't be much work to make it myself, but I figured I would find out if it already existed before doing it.
I have a macro which I use with ROOT. In this macro I want to check if a part of string exist so I can ignore it inside a loop. So, inside a loop I want to have something like:
Code:
if (string == "pre_ti_data_bdt*" || string == "pre_ti_data_nn*")
continue;
but of course I cannot use * in this piece of code! How to do this trick in C++?
One of my application generates a text file with an XML output in it. I need to read that log files and if the output does not match to a string in couple of tags it should create a log file with the file name and the the tag name.
The two tags where the string should match is:
Identity format tag should always be JPEG , well- formed and valid status tags should be true.
sample output file:
I want to read a input from user and output something like 'inputcd', which has to escape all backslashes if using double-quote. For instance, the following code would work.
Just curious if any other way I could do it without specify all backslashes? Since that takes much efforts when the sequence is long.
Code:
I am new to perl and not able to understand all the pattern matching.

This is working fine but its is not working when there is change inside the bracket for e.g (6290)

I want to do this by explitly using the filehandles in perl....and not with redirection operators in shell.
In my perl script I'd like to test if a string is written in uppercase letters or not. How can I do that? This type of test don't seem to work, so there must be other ways of doing this:
Code:
...return true.
I can create a subroutine that compares each character aginst a list of uppercase letters, but I'm hoping there's allready a build in routine in perl that does this...
I have question about replacing a string in a file.
How can I replace the printerb's 10.1.1.1 to something else(10.1.1.2, for example) without replace printera's 10.1.1.1 accidentally?
I have tried perl -e -pi "s/10.1.1.1/10.1.1.2/g" /etc/hosts. but, perl replace both 10.1.1.1 to 10.1.1.2.
how do you include a string variable as part of a regex in Perl?
View 5 Replies View RelatedWhat is the best way to merge lines, in sed, awk or perl, that occur between certain strings? I'm new to sed scripting and I have been working on this for some time now. I have a large file (sample below) that I need to edit.
What I need looks something like this.
I'm working with a very large file so simply merging all the lines then adding a new line character before ">contig" and after "translated" won't work, at least not with sed.
I am new to perl and am having trouble adding some strings together.
My full code is below:
The problem is $NewCommandB is always split into two lines, where the second line contains the "/atlas2/<blah>/<etc>/..." string. Since I am generating a .sh file to execute a lot of similar commands I need the string to all be on one line. Any idea why I get this behaviour and any suggestion on how to tell perl to make $NewCommandB a one line string?
Btw for completeness finalFileList.txt contains just file names one line after another:
what's the equivalent code of Perl?sed -i 777,2545!d somefileObviously it extract lines of somefile between that 2 digits .
View 1 Replies View RelatedI wanted to find and replace a string from a perl file. I have written a script in bash which runs the following command.
perl -pi -e "s/$findstring/$replacestring/" testfile
where as $findstring = print F_WC_TMP"$line
";
and $replaceString = $line = join ' ', split ' ', $line; print F_WC_TMP"$line
";
But when I am running the above command, i think it is replacing the $findstring with the above mentioned string and hence it contains a $line, it is looking for the variable $line and not finding the exact string. I am confused about how to search for a string that contains $ in it and replace it with another $string.
I am reading strings from a file using readline() function,the file contains some strings which has only special characters, I need to avoid the strings which has only special characters, the special characters are not similar. How to do it in python.??
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working with a Tcl script and have some strings in the following format (RE):
[a-zA-Z]+[0-9]{6}-[0-9]
There are some leading letters, combinations of capital and lowercase. Then six digits, followed by a hyphen, then one more digit. I would like to remove all of the leading alphabetic characters from the string. The resulting string would then be in this format: [0-9]{6}-[0-9]. In other words, six numeric digits, a hyphen, then one more digit.
I have tried:
Code:
set newstr [string trimleft $origstr alpha]
But that only removes the first alphabetic character, not all of them.
I couldn't get anything with regsub to work correctly, but I am somewhat of a noob with RE's in general and regsub in particular. There are usually 5 leading letters at the beginning of these strings, and I could in most cases get away with using string replace and constant indices to extract the substring. However, my preference is for this to be robust enough to handle all cases with 1 through n leading alphabetic characters.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm not used to using "sed", but I need to use it to extract part of a string piped to it.
However, the "1" mentioned in the tutorials I read doesn't extract the token between the two brackets and returns the whole input string:
Code:
/tmp# echo "before [myfile.txt] after" | sed 's/[(.+)]/1/' before [myfile.txt] after
I expected simply "myfile.txt".

The array contains in each position the content below:

I've been trying to understand pthread in C a little better. So I made a simple program that takes in a string from the command line and creates a thread to print the string. I've looked online and copied the basic concepts but there are something things I'm confused about. The programs works just fine, but I have questions. Here's what I have so far.
[Code]....
One thing I'd like to know is why the 3rd argument in the pthread_create function which is my SendMessage function needs to be typecasted to a void pointer and then send the address of the function. Also as for the 4th argument, I would see typecasting to void pointer in some of the pthread examples I saw online, but in my case I'm passing a char pointer, would this be correct? In which case would I ever want to pass a void pointer?
Do I need a pthread_exit(NULL) in my main and in the SendMessage function? If so, why? I added the sleep() function so that I could let the pthread_exit function in my SendMessage function execute first. I simply saw that the online examples on pthread had pthread_exit() in both locations.
In Perl. I can't find the global variable for $_ (except not $_ it's the one to specify AFTER the matched string.) its dollar sign then something else. Does anyone have a cheat sheet for global symbols?
