Perl script to scan back lines
Hi Perl gurus,
I have this file to scan through. Sample lines below:
2008031A, USERNAME, 12345, give ABC, take XYZ, transaction submitted
2008031B, USERNAME, 12346, waiting for processing
2008031C, USERNAME, 12347, Retrieving response
2008031D, USERNAME, 12348, This is not a valid dealing
2008031E, USERNAME, 12349, State has failed
2008031F, USERNAME, 12350, System=0
2008031G, USERNAME, 12351, Waiting for new txns
2008031H, SOMEONE, 12352, give STE, take GVO, transaction submitted
2008031I, SOMEONE, 12353, waiting for processing
2008031J, SOMEONE, 12354, Retrieving response
2008031K, SOMEONE, 12355, This is not a valid dealing
2008031L, SOMEONE, 12356, State has failed
2008031M, SOMEONE, 12357, System=0
2008031N, SOMEONE, 12358, Waiting for new txns
I need to search for this pattern
-->
"This is not a valid dealing"
When one line found a match, it should write in the log the <UserName> as well as the give and take value (i.e. ABC, XYZ)
After scanning above file, error log should appear:
ERROR: USERNAME (ABC, XYZ)
ERROR: SOMEONE (STE, GVO)
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance guys.
