vgersh99.. I will try to explain the situation for which I am seeking help.
Ygor's code:
Quote:
awk '{a[++i]=$0}
match($0,/MID=[0-9]*/){
f="outfile." substr($0,RSTART+4,RLENGTH-4)
for(n=1;n<=i;n++)
print a[n] >> f
i=0
close(f)
}' infile
is writing the original log content mentioned in my first post to files
outfile.0003080248636817
outfile.0003080248636818 etc.
Now I am trying to find a way to avoid the use of temporary files, instead manage the file contents with arrays inside awk. So, I want to know if there is any mechanism for creating arrays dynamically with name like
OUT0003080248636817
OUT0003080248636818 etc
and store the contents of array a[n] into the above respective arrays. Please help me on this.
