Programming :: Parse And Modify File Without Creating A Copy?
Nov 4, 2010
I don't think this is a "perl one-liner" of find and replace. I'm trying to auto-fill some information in a listing of files. The simplest example is that in the files the following exists:
I would want the script to find this and populate it with something like -- Date : 20101004-1758
I have a few more similar fields to autofill, and I'd like to do this from within a larger perl script I'm developing to process these files. So, how I perform in-place file modification from within a perl script?

There is a file with that format of each models' information.I don't think that's good format, but I cannot change that format. I needed to modify the model name, 'model = xxx' as 'model = abc'.And I don't know how to parse and modify 'model = iii' and 'model = ddd'.The only clue to parse 'model = ddd' is the second 'model = ' after the second 'system information'. But how to parse the second keyword?Is it possible with 'sed'?I sometimes have to modify the information of the file.using shell script if possible.Python is ok. (Shell script is better for me.)

I have to parse a file containing billions of records and populate them in the Data structure. I have used a lot of C++ class and creating objects of the class I am storing the information retrieved by parsing the file.
Now as the file become huge and number of objects become very large my code is getting bad_alloc error as it is not finding any space avalable in the heap for allocating new object.
Is there any way to parse the file?

I am trying to make a perl script which reads data from a file and parse it. The data in the file has the following syntax
Code:
Device Physical Name : Not Visible
Device Symmetrix Name : 1234
Device Serial ID : N/A
Attached BCV Device : N/A
Device Capacity
[Code]...
Each unique record starts with "Device Physical Name". So, I have a set of records within "Device Physical Name". I want to read this set of records starting from "Device Physical Name" and ends up till next "Device Physical Name". Offcourse FS is ":", and I just want to print/or later put info in a csv file.

When I parse a XML file, should I rely on the order of elements?
For example say we have:
Should I rely on the above order?
Would the following still be valid:
I'm trying to find out if a well formed XML document should have an ordered structure, or if it's still valid XML if it has no order.

I am trying to think of a logic where my file contains some data I had to read and do some processing. Issue is that file contains data multiple times. For example:
:::::::::::
var1=value1
var2=value2
[code].....
I have to read first paragraph of variables and do some processing and then move on until the end of file. Variable names are same in whole file but for each paragraph the value is different. I can't think of a logic to attain this task. How can I do it? It should be a simple bash script, but I am not able to work out.

I'm a Red Hat 6 newbie but have been around Unix.I looked at some threads here regarding this issue and haven't been able to find a solution.I'm executing;
lpadmin -p bam -v socket:139.64.101.21 -m /etc/cups/ppd/BR5370_2_GPL.ppd
When I look in /var/log/cups/error_log, here's what I get:

I want my bash file to read from "input.dat" the two values emin emax. My input file looks like that:
#cat input.dat
!Energies
emin 10.00 !minimum energy
emax 30.00 !maximum energy
Now this seems to be not so hard with the command awk
#!/bin/bash
awk '{FS=" "}/emin/{print $2}' input.dat
awk '{FS=" "}/emax/{print $2}' input.dat
[code]....
So far so good. Now, I want to define two variables (e.g. e1,e2) in the bash file, so that their values would correspond to 00.00 and 30.00, as read from the input file. This one I have not found yet, thus asking for your advice. At the end, writing echo $e1 $e2, I should get 10.00 30.00 This is even harder to me: I want to replace the values emin,emax in a new file "modify.dat" which looks like that:
...
c---- energy interval
emin = 1.00
emax = 2.00
...
with the values e1 and e2 I have in my bash file. In other words, I want to call "modify.dat", find these two lines and replace the numeric values with the e1 and e2. At the end, my file should be like:
...
c---- energy interval
emin = 10.00
emax = 30.00
...

I have a .txt-file with ~50.000 lines of numbers, generated by a mathematics program. From this file, I need line ~ 1.100 to line ~16.000 (these lines are always the same btw, this may make the solution easier, dunno) to be copy/pasted to another file, where the lines ~500 to ~15.000 (also, every time the same) should be overwritten by the aforementioned lines...I haven't found or come up with anything that works yet, mostly I find solutions to copy everything from one file to another but I can't find something to specifically overwrite a part of a file with part of another.

I've been trying to sort this out for several hours and I?m totally lost? I?ve been searching around, but haven?t found the solution to my problem. I have a directory with 100 files. I need to copy 10 lines of each files (let?s say from line 45 to 55) into one unique file. So I guess I could use sed ?w, but I didn?t manage to write the right script. I also tried using a loop to create 100 different files, each one with the 10 lines) to concatenate them later on. But I only got 1 file, not 100.

I have a Python script that copies a couple of DLL's and EXE to a directory before running the EXE. It can be a fresh copy or the files can already be in the target directory and are then overwritten. The script uses shutil.copy() to copy the files and that works but as the files are copying processing continues and the script tries to run the files mid copy, causing an error.
I need a way to wait for the files to finish copying before the script continues. Putting the thread to sleep isn't good enough, calling os.system("copy ...") also doesn't work, using os.path.exist() won't work because the file will exist during the copy.
