Print a word after a match
Hi all,

I have the below line:

Code:
08 03 * * 1-5 XXXXXXXXXXXXX -ENVI LDNFOUAT10 -EXE xxxxxxxx -CONFIG \${xxxxx} -SUBCLASS RESET -START -EXTRAAPPARGS \" -env 38LDNFOUAT10 \"  >> /tmp/SRRC_xxxxxxx_start.log.`/usr/bin/date +\%Y\%m\%d` 2>&1

I want to print just one word after the string "-env", in this case the output would be 38LDNFOUAT10.
Sorry if this has been asked before, I've been googling and all I can do is print the line AFTER the match.

Please use code tags

Code:
awk -F"-env " '{split($2,a," ");print a[1]}' file
38LDNFOUAT10

This solution was posted just a few post before yours:

That's odd, if I run the command you guys provided in my host (I'm using Cygwin) it works, however if I run it in a Solaris machine i'm getting a different output:

Code:
echo '08 03 * * 1-5 XXXXXXXXXXXXX -ENVI LDNFOUAT10 -EXE xxxxxxxx -CONFIG \${xxxxx} -SUBCLASS RESET -START -EXTRAAPPARGS \" -env 38LDNFOUAT10 \" >> /tmp/SRRC_xxxxxxx_start.log.`/usr/bin/date +\%Y\%m\%d` 2>&1' | awk -F"-env" '{split($2,a," "); print a[1]}'

What could be the reason?

Jotne, I've spent the morning searching in this and other forums and couldn't find what I was looking for. Thanks for the link though.

you could use nawk instead of awk

Not sure why its not working, its ok on my ubuntu.
Maybe some of the other here nows?

Edit: after reading post from rajamadhavan, try
awk -F'-env' '{split($2,a," "); print a[1]}'
or
awk '{split($2,a," "); print a[1]}' FS="-env"
awk '{split($2,a," "); print a[1]}' FS='-env'

Try using nawk instead of awk.
Seems like the Solaris awk is accepting only a single-character FS.
