Hi Everyone,
I have an unusual requirement. Here is where i am stuck for sometime now...
I have this text file.. lets say .. output.sql...
it has lot of entries... here below is part of the entry...
from some error message, i would get below details:
So i will store these fields in variables as below:
these variable has the same contents as highlighted in red in the text file.Now what i want to achieve is, delete the first occurrence of this matching pattern.
That is delete the first occurence pattern starting from '(' till '),'
i mean to delete the entry
I need a sed -i command so that it removes this first occurence, and efficiently fast (the max file size is 5MB) such that final output will be as below,
any help or guidance on how to achieve this is deeply appreciated.
