Goodmorning people :) I have just started to learn this language and i have a logical problem. I need to write a program to parse various file of text. Here two sample:
--------------- trial text bla bla bla bla error bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla on more lines trial text bla bla bla bla warning bla bla bla more bla to be grouped with warning bla bla bla on more lines could be one two or ten lines also withouth the tab beginning again text text can contain also blank lines text no delimiters.... -------------- Apr 8 04:02:08 machine text on one line Apr 8 04:02:09 machine this is an error Apr 8 04:02:10 machine this is a warning -------------- parsing the file, I'll need to decide if the line/group is an error, warning or to skip. Mine problem if how logical do it: if i read line by line, I'll catch the error/warning on first and the second/third/more will be skipped by control. Reading a group of line i could lose the order on the output: my idea is to have an output in html with the line in the color of the check (yellow for warning, red for error). And i have also many rules to be followed so if i read one rule and then i search on the entire file, the check will be really slow. Hope someone could give me some tips.
