formatting a file using shell script
Hi
I have to do the following.I have to format a file test.t
The contents are
# Header 1231
xyz
asdf
asdapsdcsd
//string1 = "pqrs"
//string1 = "abcd"; //info
//string1 = "*pqrs"; //add
string1 = "#123"; //sub
//string1 = "#1234567890"
data = check(string1)
//string1 = "#1234567890"
//string2 = "pqrs"
//string2 = "abcd"; //info
//string2 = "*pqrs"; //add
string2 = "#123"; //sub
print "abcd ";
return xy
I want to modify this as
# Header 1231
xyz
asdf
asdapsdcsd
string1 = "#987";
data = check(string1)
string2 = "#21 43 65 87 59";
print "abcd ";
return xy
The requirement is I have to remove all the lines starting with string1 or //string1 or string2 or //string2 and add two new lines
string1 = "#987"; //mult and string2 = "#21 43 65 87 59"; //sub
in its place. How do i do that using a shell script?
"#987 is a default string , but 21 43 65 87 59 is input to the file as
1234567895,ie, if the script is test.sh, i would call that as
./test.sh 1234567895. and i should get this output.
Please help..

ssastringzero
SSAStringCpy(3SNMP) SNMP Library Functions SSAStringCpy(3SNMP)
NAME
SSAStringCpy, SSAStringInit, SSAStringToChar, SSAStringZero - Sun Solstice Enterprise Agent string helper functions
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lssasnmp [ library .. ]
#include <impl.h>
void *SSAStringZero(String *string);
int SSAStringInit(String *string, uchar_t *chars, int len, char *error_label);
int SSAStringCpy(String *string1, String *string2, char *error_label);
char *SSAStringToChar(String string);
DESCRIPTION
The SSAStringCpy() function makes a deep copy of string2 to string1. This function assumes that string1 has been processed by the SSAS-
tringZero() function. Memory is allocated inside the string1 and the contents of string2, not just the pointer, is copied to the string1.
If an error is encountered, an error message is stored in the error_label buffer.
The SSAStringInit() function copies the char array from chars to the string instance with the specified length len. This function assumes
that the string instance has been processed by the SSAStringZero() function or no memory is allocated inside the string instance. If an
error is encountered, an error message is stored in the error_label buffer.
The SSAStringToChar() function returns a temporary char array buffer for printing purposes.
The SSAStringZero() function frees the memory inside of the String instance, but not the string object itself.
RETURN VALUES
The SSAStringInit() and SSAStringCpy() functions return 0 if successful and -1 if error.
