Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Replace string in XML file with awk/sed with string from another Post 302966453 by cozzin on Friday 12th of February 2016 04:24:30 AM

So, I would like to update my XML file (Update.xml) with the data from file2. For the first line of file2, I will have to update the existing XML: instead of "765101293" i'll put the first line of file2 > 765003448. Then I'll move the xml somewhere else, and then I'll pass to the next line on file2. Repeat the process for all lines of file2. The two variables $1 and $2 I used when I run my script like this: ./script.sh file2 Update.xml. Hope this makes a bit more sense.

XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter(3) 			User Contributed Perl Documentation			   XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter(3)

NAME
XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter - output XML in canonical XML format SYNOPSIS
use XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter; $writer = XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter OPTIONS; $parser->parse(Handler => $writer); DESCRIPTION
"XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter" is a PerlSAX handler that will return a string or write a stream of canonical XML for an XML instance and it's content. "XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter" objects hold the options used for writing the XML objects. Options can be supplied when the the object is created, $writer = new XML::Handler::CanonXMLWriter PrintComments => 1; or modified at any time before calling the parser's `"parse()"' method: $writer->{PrintComments} = 0; OPTIONS
IOHandle IOHandle contains a handle for writing the canonical XML to. If an IOHandle is not provided, the canonical XML string will be returned from `"parse()"'. PrintComments By default comments are not written to the output. Setting comment to a true value will include comments in the output. AUTHOR
