How to identify delimiter to find and replace a string with sed?
I need to find and replace a date format in a SQL script with sed. The original lines are like this:
Then I want to replace '01-JUL-2019' with variable which real value is '01-OCT-2019'. After replacement, the line in file should be like this:
AND ep.begin_date <= '01-OCT-2019'. I am not good at how to use sed to identify delimiter or separator and help sed to find right part of this string and replace it with right value. Please help with your code. My testing code is ugly so that I do not post them. I would like to learn from all of you. Thanks for help.
