i- You have mentioned previous post you are having multiple xmls, but in your previous post you have shown us *.tmp, how these 2 are related?

The are the same i overlooked .xml for .tmp

ii- If you have multiple files(xmls) and you have made a single big output file then did you try to consider my first post's solution?

I have multiple .tmp files but each .tmp file which will act as Input_file file in the do-while loop and then it needs to be parsed with the two string mentioned in the OP.

For each match found it should save each parsed data in a new file
thus for two match found between strings it should save output file with this name.

Input_file_found1.tmp
Input_file_found2.tmp.

Check my previous post for the example.

iii- Please re-phrase your problem with sample Input_file and expected Output_file again in case you think information provided is confusing people(At least I am confuse). Please help us here to help you.

Sample input file is the deploy.tmp in the OP but like i said i have many files like the deploy.tmp which i will be reading one by one and using yr suggestions to parse them.

In the OP the output filename should now be deploy.tmp_found1.tmp and deploy.tmp_found2.tmp and likewise depending on the number of matches found and deploy.tmp being the Input file name what will change as we read files from that folder in the do-while.

I hope i hv explained my requirement.

dh_movefiles

DH_MOVEFILES(1) 						     Debhelper							   DH_MOVEFILES(1)

NAME

       dh_movefiles - move files out of debian/tmp into subpackages

SYNOPSIS

       dh_movefiles [debhelperoptions] [--sourcedir=dir] [-Xitem] [file...]

DESCRIPTION

       dh_movefiles is a debhelper program that is responsible for moving files out of debian/tmp or some other directory and into other package
       build directories. This may be useful if your package has a Makefile that installs everything into debian/tmp, and you need to break that
       up into subpackages.

       Note: dh_install is a much better program, and you are recommended to use it instead of dh_movefiles.

FILES

       debian/package.files
	   Lists the files to be moved into a package, separated by whitespace. The filenames listed should be relative to debian/tmp/. You can
	   also list directory names, and the whole directory will be moved.

OPTIONS

       --sourcedir=dir
	   Instead of moving files out of debian/tmp (the default), this option makes it move files out of some other directory. Since the entire
	   contents of the sourcedir is moved, specifying something like --sourcedir=/ is very unsafe, so to prevent mistakes, the sourcedir must
	   be a relative filename; it cannot begin with a `/'.

       -Xitem, --exclude=item
	   Exclude files that contain item anywhere in their filename from being installed.

       file ...
	   Lists files to move. The filenames listed should be relative to debian/tmp/. You can also list directory names, and the whole directory
	   will be moved. It is an error to list files here unless you use -p, -i, or -a to tell dh_movefiles which subpackage to put them in.

NOTES

       Note that files are always moved out of debian/tmp by default (even if you have instructed debhelper to use a compatibility level higher
       than one, which does not otherwise use debian/tmp for anything at all). The idea behind this is that the package that is being built can be
       told to install into debian/tmp, and then files can be moved by dh_movefiles from that directory. Any files or directories that remain are
       ignored, and get deleted by dh_clean later.
