Grep number between Square [] brackets
I wanted to store the number inside the square bracket between colon( : ) and closing suqre bracket(]) in some variable.

Suppose I have lines like :

Input file :
Code:
 
20140320 00:08:23.846 INFO  [WebContainer : 84] - anything in line
20140320 00:08:23.846 Test  [translate : 589] - Virtual and lab lab anything
20140320 00:08:23.846 Data  [anything : 60] - anything in line
20140320 00:08:23.847 anyting  [anything : 5] - anything in line

I need data in one variable to store all the values : 84, 589,60 and 5

Can anyone please help me
