Parse XML e report con AWK
Thanks in advance who can answer.

I have to make a small shell that after reading an XML file and extract the fields I create a text file with the same fields taken previously in tabular form.

I did this
parse.awk
Code:
----------------------
BEGIN {
   FS="[><]"
}
{
  for(i=2; i<=NF; i+=2) {
          if ( $i ~ /^\// ) continue
          printf("name->[%s] value->[%s]\n", $i, $(i+1))
  }
}
----------------------

risultato.out
Code:
name->[?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?] value->[]
name->[a1 Id="123456" Size="4249" isDir="false"] value->[]
name->[a2] value->[123456]
name->[a3] value->[123456]
name->[a4] value->[2010-03-22T16:17:09]
-----------------------------------------

a shell that reading the outcome of the first (risultato.out) I create table

report.out

the report should be
Code:
a1                    a2                    a3               a4
                       123456              123456         123456
--------------------------------------------

a third shell should check every now and then usually when I see the updated XML file and the field a1 (now empty) risultato.out open again and add the value in a1.

I do not write the last 2 shell.: (

Thanks

English only, please read the forum rules, edit and translate your post!

As always, to help us understand your requirements, post some small representative sample input, not only the output you'd like to get,
given that input.

Thank you!
