Hello Vinoth Kumar G,

Here is the code which will allow us to find files with name xml.
It will delete the files forcefully so please don't use it in directly Production/Live environment. Kindly test it and then try it.

Code:
find . -name "*.xml" -exec rm -rf {} \;


Kindly let us know if you need any more assistance.


Thanks,
R. Singh

Hi Guys,

I have a xml file as below where I need to find the particular XML tag(<dpath>) and delete the content of it.


Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><title>XML</title><head>Ram</head><ControlCenter><doStatus>1</doStatus></ControlCenter><exitlabel>Gzip thefile</exitlabel><dpath>/internal/SAP</dpath><dqm>SAPNODE</dqm><username>Vinoth</username>

I tried using sed but the o/p is not correct:

Command tried: sed ' /<dpath>/,/<\/dpath>/d' filename

But it gives the below o/p:



Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Output expected:



Code:
<title>XML</title><head>Ram</head><ControlCenter><doStatus>1</doStatus></ControlCenter><exitlabel>Gzip the file</exitlabel>dqm>SAPNODE</dqm><username>Vinoth</username>

Note: XMLStarlet is not in my platform. So please provide some other option to fix this.


Your help is much appreciated!!!
Hello Vinoth,

As per your requirement here is a awk solution, it may help.


Code:
 awk -vs="<dpath>.*<\/dpath>" -vs1="<exitlabel>Gzip thefile</exitlabel>" 'NR>1 {gsub(s,X); gsub(s1,ORS s1); print}' file_name

Output will be as follows.



Code:
<title>XML</title><head>Ram</head><ControlCenter><doStatus>1</doStatus></ControlCenter>
<exitlabel>Gzip thefile</exitlabel><dqm>SAPNODE</dqm>
<username>Vinoth</username>


Thanks,
R. Singh

locale::codes::langext

Locale::Codes::LangExt(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				 Locale::Codes::LangExt(3)

NAME

       Locale::Codes::LangExt - standard codes for language extension identification

SYNOPSIS

	  use Locale::Codes::LangExt;

	  $lext = code2langext('acm');		       # $lext gets 'Mesopotamian Arabic'
	  $code = langext2code('Mesopotamian Arabic'); # $code gets 'acm'

	  @codes   = all_langext_codes();
	  @names   = all_langext_names();

DESCRIPTION

       The "Locale::Codes::LangExt" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language extensions, such as those as defined in
       the IANA language registry.

       Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default IANA language
       registry codes will be used.

SUPPORTED CODE SETS

       There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language extensions. A code set may be specified using either a name, or
       a constant that is automatically exported by this module.

       For example, the two are equivalent:

	  $lext = code2langext('acm','alpha');
	  $lext = code2langext('acm',LOCALE_LANGEXT_ALPHA);

       The codesets currently supported are:

       alpha
	   This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from the IANA language registry, such as 'acm' for Mesopotamian Arabic.

	   This is the default code set.

ROUTINES

       code2langext ( CODE [,CODESET] )
       langext2code ( NAME [,CODESET] )
       langext_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 )
       all_langext_codes ( [CODESET] )
       all_langext_names ( [CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangExt::rename_langext  ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangExt::add_langext  ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangExt::delete_langext  ( CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangExt::add_langext_alias  ( NAME ,NEW_NAME )
       Locale::Codes::LangExt::delete_langext_alias  ( NAME )
       Locale::Codes::LangExt::rename_langext_code  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangExt::add_langext_code_alias  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangExt::delete_langext_code_alias  ( CODE [,CODESET] )
	   These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
