printing array elements inside AWK

i just want to dump my array and see if it contains the values i am expecting. It should print as follows,
ignore[0]=345fht
ignore[1]=rthfg56
.
.
.
ignore[n]=49568g

Here is the code. Is this even possible to do? please help

Code:

 
termReport.pl < $4 | dos2ux |  head -2000 | awk '
    BEGIN { foundTermEvent=0;
            endMarker="'"${endMarker}"'"; }
    {
      if ( (substr($0, 1, length(endMarker)) == endMarker) ||
           (substr($0, 1, 39) == "'${SBINDIR}'/termReport.pl: ") )
      {
        if (foundTermEvent == 1)
        {
          print "";
          foundTermEvent=0;
        }
      }
      if (foundTermEvent == 1)
      {
            z=0
            while ( z <= leanth_of_ignore )
            {
                if ( ignore[z] == $2 )
               {
               foundTermEvent = 0;
               { print ignore[z] }
               z=31
               }
               else
               {
               print;
               { print ignore[z] }
               z++
               }
            }
      }
      if (substr($0, 1, 18) == "Termination Event:")
      {
        foundTermEvent=1;
      }
    }'

STAG-DIFF(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation STAG-DIFF(1p) NAME
stag-diff - finds the difference between two stag files SYNOPSIS
stag-diff -ignore foo-id -ignore bar-id file1.xml file2.xml DESCRIPTION
Compares two data trees and reports whether they match. If they do not match, the mismatch is reported. ARGUMENTS -help|h shows this document -ignore|i ELEMENT these nodes are ignored for the purposes of comparison. Note that attributes are treated as elements, prefixed by the containing element id. For example, if you have <foo ID="wibble"> And you wish to ignore the ID attribute, then you would use the switch -ignore foo-ID You can specify multiple elements to ignore like this -i foo -i bar -i baz You can also specify paths -i foo/bar/bar-id -parser|p FORMAT which parser to use. The default is XML. This can also be autodetected by the file suffix. Other alternatives are sxpr and itext. See Data::Stag for details. -report|r ELEMENT report mismatches as they occur on each element of type ELEMENT multiple elements can be specified -verbose|v used in conjunction with the -report switch shows the tree of the mismatching element OUTPUT If a mismatch is reported, a report is generated displaying the subpart of the tree that could not be matched. This will look like this: REASON: no_matching_node: annotation no_matching_node: feature_set no_matching_node: feature_span no_matching_node: evidence no_matching_node: evidence-id data_mismatch(:15077290 ne :15077291): evidence-id AND evidence-id Due to the nature of tree matching, it can be difficult to specify exactly how trees do not match. To investigate this, you may need to use the -r and -v options. For the above output, I would recommend using stag-diff -r feature_span -v ALGORITHM Both trees are recursively traversed... see the actual code for how this works The order of elements is not important; eg <foo> <bar> <baz>1</baz> </bar> <bar> <baz>2</baz> </bar> </foo> matches <foo> <bar> <baz>2</baz> </bar> <bar> <baz>1</baz> </bar> </foo> The recursive nature of this algorithm means that certain tree comparisons will explode wrt time and memory. I think this will only happen with very deep trees where nodes high up in the tree can only be differentiated by nodes low down in the tree. Both trees are loaded into memory to begin with, so it may thrash with very large documents AUTHOR Chris Mungall cjm at fruitfly dot org SEE ALSO
