Help with search and delete/add/modify script
Gurus,
I need to run a script on multiple XML files in different directories and do the following (the output can be redirected to create a new file)
1. Search a pattern like "abc.mno.xyz" in an XML file, once detected, the script should delete one line above and 3 lines below (including the line containing the pattern)
So the following pattern should just disappear from the text file on which I will run this script
<option>
<name>abc.mno.xyz</name>
<value>true</value>
</option>
2. Update the following fragment in the XML file
<options>
<option>
<name>addAllRoles</name>
<value>true</value>
</option>
</options>
to the following (it changes one of the value from true to false and adds an additional xml tag)
<options>
<option>
<name>addAllRoles</name>
<value>false</value>
</option>
<option>
<name>addRoles</name>
<value>false</value>
</option>
</options>

cgi::xml
XML(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation XML(3pm)
NAME
CGI::XML - Perl extension for converting CGI.pm variables to/from XML
SYNOPSIS
use CGI::XML;
$q = new CGI::XML;
# convert CGI.pm variables to XML
$xml = $q->toXML;
$xml = $q->toXML($root);
# convert XML to CGI.pm variables
$q->toCGI($xml);
DESCRIPTION
The CGI::XML module converts CGI.pm variables to XML and vice versa.
CGI::XML is a subclass of CGI.pm, so it reads the CGI variables just as CGI.pm would.
METHODS
$q = new CGI::XML
creates a new instance of CGI::XML. You also have access to all of the methods in CGI.pm.
$q->toXML([$root])
where $root is an optional parameter that specifies the root element. By default, toXML will not return a root element.
$q->toCGI($xml)
where $xml is the XML you would like to convert to CGI.pm parameters. Values in the XML will overwrite any existing values if they
exist.
NOTE
CGI::XML does not currently handle multiple selections passed from HTML forms. This will be added in a future release.
