Deleting lines on matching certain pattern
hi

I have a large xml file from which i have taken few lines . In this file I have to find for the string </invoices> and check if the 3 rd line after this string does not begin with <portCode> ,then i have to delete the string </invoices> and the next line having the string </shippingBill> . In other words if the 3rd line after the string begins with <invoiceSerialNo> then i have to delete the string </invoices> and the next line having the string </shippingBill>

Thanks in anticipation

A shorter example would have been appreciated, and highlighting the lines you wanted removed from your sample XML file would help us clearly understand what you're trying to do...

Do the spaces at the ends of some of your strings have to be matched, or is matching the closing tags in your strings sufficient?

What have you tried to solve this problem?

What operating system are you using?

Hi

What I have done is a i have taken a output of the xml query and generated this xml using a script however in the xml wherever there is more than 2 child i have this problem which i could not resolve

I'm sorry for the large example ,For easier understanding
I have cut a portion of the earlier xml . What i'm looking for is if the 3 rd line after the tag
</invoices> (Only the closing tag which i have made in bold) is

<portCode> then no need to do any action but if it is


<invoiceSerialNo> then i have to delete the line
</invoices> and the next line
</shippingBill>
Code:
<discountAmtIC>0</discountAmtIC>          <closeOfBillIndicator>1</closeOfBillIndicator>          <remitterName>SOLIDARIDAD Y TRABAJO</remitterName>          <remitterCountry>ES</remitterCountry>

Your refusal to use CODE tags makes it impossible to see the difference between a single space and a sequence of one or more space and tab characters. Please use CODE tags as required by the rules you agreed to when you joined the UNIX & Linux Forums.

Your choice to put an entire XML file on a single line makes the text processing tools available on UNIX-like systems unusable. The standards leave the results unspecified if lines in the files being processed are longer than LINE_MAX bytes (including the terminating <newline> character). On many systems LINE_MAX is 2048.

Your refusal to tell us what operating system you're using, along with a single line XML file, makes coming up with a script that might work for you overly complicated.

And, talking about the 3rd line after something in a file that only contains one line, by definition, means that you don't want anything changed.

Sorry again ,I'll retry
I want to search for the string <invoiceSerialNo> and if the 2nd line and 3rd line above this string is </invoices> and </shippingBill> then delete the 2nd and 3rd lines above the string ( ie delete </invoices> and </shippingBill>) .Thanks again

Code:
<ebrcNumber>N41EXCU150730003</ebrcNumber>

So, no attempts from your part?

---------- Post updated at 15:59 ---------- Previous update was at 15:59 ----------

Anyhow, try
Code:
awk '
/<\/invoices>/  {SLINV = $0
                 getline SB
                 getline INV
                 getline
                 if     (/<invoiceSerialNo>/ &&
                         SB ~ /<\/shippingBill>/)       {print SLINV
                                                         print SB   
                                                        }
                 print INV}
1
' file

and comment on the result.

Thanks Rudi

the script is deleting the lines
Code:
</invoices>
   </shippingBill>

,but at the wrong place .In other words it is deleting tags above line starting with
Code:
<portCode>

instead of the line starting with
Code:
<invoiceSerialNo>

As regards my efforts i was trying with a for loop which was not working something like
Code:
#!/usr/bin/sh
for i in `grep -B 2 "<invoiceSerialNo>" `
do
nawk '{gsub (shippingBill,"");print}' test2  >> s
done

Thanks again
