Sed - Pattern Searching

Hi,

Please take a look at the below eg. I would like to search for abc() pattern first and then search for (xyz) in the next line. If I can find the pattern, then I should delete the 3 lines.

I can only find the pattern and delete but I am unable to find two patterns and delete. Any response is appreciated.

Eg :

Existing file
------------
abc() {
when : (xyz)&a&b&a
}

abc(){
when : a&b&c
}

abc() {
when : a&b&c&(xyz)

Expected Result file
-------------------
abc(){
when : a&b&c
}

Thanks

Tcl_StringMatch(3tcl)					      Tcl Library Procedures					     Tcl_StringMatch(3tcl)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME
Tcl_StringMatch, Tcl_StringCaseMatch - test whether a string matches a pattern SYNOPSIS
#include <tcl.h> int Tcl_StringMatch(str, pattern) int Tcl_StringCaseMatch(str, pattern, flags) ARGUMENTS
const char *str (in) String to test. const char *pattern (in) Pattern to match against string. May contain special characters from the set *?[]. int flags (in) OR-ed combination of match flags, currently only TCL_MATCH_NOCASE. 0 specifies a case-sensitive search. _________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION
This utility procedure determines whether a string matches a given pattern. If it does, then Tcl_StringMatch returns 1. Otherwise Tcl_StringMatch returns 0. The algorithm used for matching is the same algorithm used in the string match Tcl command and is similar to the algorithm used by the C-shell for file name matching; see the Tcl manual entry for details. In Tcl_StringCaseMatch, the algorithm is the same, but you have the option to make the matching case-insensitive. If you choose this (by passing TCL_MATCH_NOCASE), then the string and pattern are essentially matched in the lower case. KEYWORDS
match, pattern, string Tcl 8.5 Tcl_StringMatch(3tcl)
