[s_m_db2_trn_db2_EVENT_accounting_class]
$$EVENT_START_DATE=2009-07-10 09:08:18 ^M

$$DEFAULT_VALUE=''^M
$$DEFAULT=0^M
$$CONNECTOR_ID=JDBC06^M
$$OBJECT_NAME=HSCSP_ACCOUNTING_CLASS^M
$$OBJECT_VERB=Create^M
$$EVENT_STATUS=0^M
$$EVENT_COMMENT=This event is generated from Accounting_class entity^M
---

each line ends with the special character ^M

awk -F\= '/DEFAULT=/ {print $2}' file it returns 0 but wen i tried to add 1 to this value it is not adding.
how get value 0 with out special character for $$DEFAULT variable as output.

Thanks in Advance

Try this:

Code:

awk '/DEFAULT=/{sub("\r","");split($0,a,"=");print a[2]}' file

Code:

awk -F'[=\r]' '$1 == "$$DEFAULT" {print $2}' file
