Hi all,
I have been given a task to search for strings in a file that is encoded. I need to display the file name only when all the 3 strings which i provide are present in the file name.
i first try to get a list of files according from the directory according to the value passed in argument 1. For each file in the list i then try to search for a strings in the file
- The strange thing is that it never goes into the loop
if i replace loop for search_pattern3 and put it before search_pattern2 then the code does not go into search_pattern3. So it is always the second loop. i have tried to enter same values for string1,string2,string3 but still it does not matches.
Could someone help.
