Hi Guys,
I wanted to print the length of each record and the record itself.
I tried the following awk ...
awk 'a=length(); {print $a,$0}' file1
But it is giving me the records instead of length.
and also, it giving me each record twice. Means the value of a is not the length of the... (0 Replies)

marc::file::microlif
MARC::File::MicroLIF(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation MARC::File::MicroLIF(3pm)NAME
MARC::File::MicroLIF - MicroLIF-specific file handling
SYNOPSIS
use MARC::File::MicroLIF;
my $file = MARC::File::MicroLIF->in( $filename );
while ( my $marc = $file->next() ) {
# Do something
}
$file->close();
undef $file;
EXPORT
None.
The buffer must be large enough to handle any valid record because we don't check for cases like a CR/LF pair or an end-of-record/CR/LF
trio being only partially in the buffer.
The max valid record is the max MARC record size(99999) plus one or two characters per tag (CR, LF, or CR/LF). It's hard to say what the
max number of tags is, so here we use 6000. (6000 tags can be squeezed into a MARC record only if every tag has only one subfield
containing a maximum of one character, or if data from multiple tags overlaps in the MARC record body. We're pretty safe.)
METHODS
in()
Opens a MicroLIF file for reading.
Gets the next chunk of data. If $want_line is true then you get the next chunk ending with any combination of
and
of any length. If
it is false or not passed then you get the next chunk ending with x60 followed by any combination of
and
of any length.
All trailing
and
are stripped.
header()
If the MicroLIF file has a file header then the header is returned. If the file has no header or the file has not yet been opened then
"undef" is returned.
decode()
Decodes a MicroLIF record and returns a USMARC record.
Can be called in one of three different ways:
$object->decode( $lif )
MARC::File::MicroLIF->decode( $lif )
MARC::File::MicroLIF::decode( $lif )
