Read xml file till script finds separation and run again for next input and so on
Hi All,
I have one query, I managed to run script with user inputs through command line or with 1 file.
But I need to read a txt file/xml file in which user can mention multiple sets of answers and script should run for each set till it reach the EOF.
Thanks in advance
for example, the file will looks like:
Code:
1)
name=java-tree
path=/home/tamt/java-tree
value=100
type=solid
######################
2)
name=dotnet-tree
path=/home/tamt/dotnet-tree
value=80
type=solid
######################
3)
name=shell-tree
path=/home/tamt/shell-tree
value=50
type=comp
######################

NAME

       fileutil::magic::cgen - Generator core for compiler of magic(5) files

SYNOPSIS

       package require Tcl  8.4

       package require fileutil::magic::cgen  ?1.0?

       package require fileutil::magic::rt  ?1.0?

       package require struct::tree

       package require struct::list

       ::fileutil::magic::cgen::2tree script

       ::fileutil::magic::cgen::treedump tree

       ::fileutil::magic::cgen::treegen tree node

_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       This  package  provides the generator backend for a compiler of magic(5) files into recognizers based on the fileutil::magic::rt recognizer
       runtime package. For the compiler frontend using this generator see the package fileutil::magic::cfront.

COMMANDS

       ::fileutil::magic::cgen::2tree script
	      This command converts the recognizer specified by the script into a tree and returns the object command of that tree as its  result.
	      It uses the package struct::tree for the tree.

	      The script is in the format specified by magic(5).

       ::fileutil::magic::cgen::treedump tree
	      This  command  takes a tree as generated by ::fileutil::magic::cgen::2tree and returns a string encoding the tree for human consump-
	      tion, to aid in debugging.

       ::fileutil::magic::cgen::treegen tree node
	      This command takes a tree as generated by ::fileutil::magic::cgen::2tree and returns a Tcl script, the recognizer for the file types
	      represented by the sub-tree rooted at the node.  The generated script makes extensive use of the commands provided by the recognizer
	      runtime package fileutil::magic::rt to perform its duties.
