Hello All,

How i can put loop in nawk. what i want is that i define a variable which contain vlaues like var='1 2 3 4 5' and then define for loop which gives vlaue to nawk one by one to varilable inside nawk and then print it.

Code:

cat /omp-data/logs/5etr/081121.APX | nawk -v CDNLIST='700 701' '

BEGIN {
for LIST in $CDNLIST
do
        TG=$LIST;
        printf ("DATE IN ST EN  TGN ISEIZE ISATMP   IANS OATMPT   OVFL OSEIZE OSATMP   OANS TOTUSG OOSMTCE   OOS DBLSZR
NTWCONG\n");
done
}

Regards,
Waqas Ahmed

An example:

Code:

awk -v var="1 2 3 4 5" '
BEGIN {
  split(var, arr)
  for(i in arr){
    print arr[i]
  }
}'
