Help with awk/sed
Hi,
I am a newbie in UNIX and need a help here .
I have a file from which I need to extract data based on a certain search pattern.
E.g, consider the below file
/* ----------- IB_QEF_INF_1244_DMFullBox_job------------*/
##########some data##########
##########some data##########
/* ----------- IB_QEF_INF_1244_DMGRPFPMSIn_Box -----------*/
##########some data##########
##########some data##########
/* ------------- IB_QEF_INF_1244_DMGRPFPMS_Box ---------- */
##########some data##########
##########some data##########
Now, I need to extract the data between the patterns /* ----------- IB_QEF_INF_1244_DMFullBox_job------------*/
and /* ----------- IB_QEF_INF_1244_DMGRPFPMSIn_Box -----------*/.
Like this I have numberous different patterns starting with the same word IB_QEF_INF_1244*
Hope I am clear with the requirement.
Thanks
Now there's one more catch, I need to extract the data and store in a separate files with the same name given with in the pattern ( IB_QEF_INF_1244_DMFullBox_job and IB_QEF_INF_1244_DMGRPFPMSIn_Box).

Assume: 174 is string.
Assume: tempfind.txt is used for awk and sed both.

tt_pattern_user
tt_pattern_user(library call) tt_pattern_user(library call)
NAME
tt_pattern_user -- return the value in a user data cell for a pattern object
SYNOPSIS
#include <Tt/tt_c.h>
void *tt_pattern_user(
Tt_pattern p,
int key);
DESCRIPTION
The tt_pattern_user function returns the value in the indicated user data cell for the specified pattern object.
Every pattern object allows an arbitrary number of user data cells that are each one word in size. The user data cells are identified by
integer keys. The tool can use these keys in any manner to associate arbitrary data with a pattern object.
The user data is part of the pattern object (that is, the storage buffer in the application); it is not part of the actual pattern. The
content of user cells has no effect on pattern matching.
The p argument is a unique handle for a message pattern. This handle is returned after tt_pattern_create is called. The key argument is
the specified user data cell. The application can use tt_pattern_user_set(3) to assign the keys to the user data cells that are part of
the pattern object. The value of each data cell must be unique for this pattern.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the tt_pattern_user function returns the data cell, a piece of arbitrary user data that can hold a void *. The
application can use tt_ptr_error(3) to extract one of the following Tt_status values from the returned data:
TT_OK The operation completed successfully.
TT_ERR_NOMP
The ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot restart it.
TT_ERR_POINTER
The pointer passed does not point to an object of the correct type for this operation.
APPLICATION USAGE
The user data cell is intended to hold an address. If the address selected is equal to one of the Tt_status enumerated values, the result
of the tt_ptr_error(3) function will not be reliable.
